This is the WORST mac n cheese I've ever eaten! It came out this one big glutenous mass. Put a spoon in it and the whole thing came out in a huge crockpot-shaped blob! It was rich in flavor, albeit fattening, and my family devoured it. Cook in Crock Pot for 2 2 1/2 hours on low, stirring occasionally.

In your Crock Pot combine the cheese mixture, sour cream, soup, salt, milk, mustard and pepper. Like the mac and cheese I make in my oven, it came out sturdy, like a lasagna, as opposed to noodles with sauce. Mix butter and cheese over medium high heat in a saucepan. Rather than dirtying three pots, this dump-it and leave-it method produced a rich, creamy casserole. I will never make regular mac and cheese again. Will experiment with a few other tweaks next time but this is too easy to not try again. Noodles ended up softer than we prefer so next time I will start checking at 3 hours. Won't make it again.ĭidn't have evaporated milk so I substituted all whole milk. 1/2 pound uncooked elbow macaroni (regular, gluten free, spelt, you name it on the variety of noodle) 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided 3 cups whole. Thought this might be a nice easy mac and cheese - tried it. It's just not that hard in the first place. Check at the 2 hour mark to make sure pasta is not getting mushy. Add all ingredients to the crockpot and mix well. The centre was not quite set, but after turning it onto a platter, and a few brief minutes under the broiler, the custard was set perfectly and the top was nicely browned. Spray your crockpot with non stick spray to prevent sticking. My location is pretty high in elevation (about 3500ft) so I let it cook for about 3 hours and 15 minutes.
#Mac and cheese noodles mushy in crock pot for mac#
if it’s a scorching summer day and you’re dying for Mac and cheese, but you don’t want to heat up your kitchen with a boiling a pot of water and a hot oven, making Mac and cheese in a slow cooker is a stroke of genius! I followed the directions pretty much exactly, an the result was more like a cheesy macaroni pie or loaf, rather than conventional creamy Mac and cheese, but it was still delicious and I would definitely make it again. This recipe is excellent! And you know why? Because. Add the paprika, salt and pepper, and both cheeses. Cook and stir until the mixture begins to bubble and thicken. Slowly whisk in the Half and Half or milk. Add the flour and cook and stir another minute. Absolutely horrid and a waste of good cheese. In a large sauce pan over medium heat, melt the butter.
