Paula Deen Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese,I saw Paula Deen make this recipe on her Food Network program. I was looking for a really creamy macaroni and cheese recipe, and this is it! I changed it a bit by omitting the eggs (the original recipe calls for three) and boiling the macaroni for six minutes instead of seven, so it doesn’t get mushy while cooking in the Crockpot. I also shortened the cooking time from three to two and a half hours. Perfection!,The absolute best mac and cheese ever!!! This is my #1 go to recipe when I know the crowds are coming!!! Literally fixed 5 batches of this for our 4th of July celebration this year and still didn’t have enough. 2 of my kids just graduated from college and wanted to have some friends over for a lake day at our house. These big kids can’t get enough of this mac and cheese!!!! The ones that left before the fireworks even started were begging to take some home. LOL – how do you say no even when you know the ones staying are expecting to come back for more??? The only adjustment I make is a reduction in the amount of eggs that use. I typically make 2 batches at a time, so I just cut the eggs in half (Only use 3) – this is a little harder to do when you only make a single batch but my crowd requires at least double batches all the time anyway!!,4 cups uncooked large elbow macaroni 8 tablespoons butter 4 1/2 cups FRESHLY grated sharp cheddar cheese 1 cup sour cream 1 1/2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans condensed cheddar cheese soup 2 cups whole milk 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt 1 teaspoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon black pepper After reading all the comments and suggestions this is what I did: I first boiled the macaroni for 4 minutes drained and added the butter to melt. Then added all ingredients to the crockpot for an hour and a half stirring every 30 minutes. Turned out PERFECT! Even my hubby who is a Mac n cheese connoisseur loved it!!
