Ingredients

  • 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (an 8-ounce box isn't quite 2 cups)
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stuck) butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 1/2 cups (about 10 ounces) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed Cheddar cheese soup
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Boil the macaroni in a 2 quart saucepan in plenty of water until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain. In a medium saucepan, mix butter and cheese. Stir until the cheese melts. In a slow cooker, combine cheese/butter mixture and add the eggs, sour cream, soup, salt, milk, mustard and pepper and stir well. Then add drained macaroni and stir again. Set the slow cooker on low setting and cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally.

    Kids love this!!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have made this recipe over and over again and it has always turned out perfectly. I do keep the crockpot on low for about 3... hours to prevent burning, but my kids love the burned cheese. So sometimes I let it go a little longer. I have thought about adding some other levels of flavors, but then I have to ask myself why, when the kids love this so much. Some have said it has a dull flavor. What I found was at the end of the cooking time, I add a lot of very sharp chedder cheese on the top and let it melt, and boy oh boy it's out of this world.

    Great Mac and Cheese

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Paula never lets us down, does she? I used a low carb pasta because my husband is on the Atkin's diet. He had been really... been missing mac and cheese. I followed the recipe as written. But I think it can work with any preference you have. Add a little more ground mustard, or some crushed red pepper for a kick. Maybe a pinch of nutmeg. This is a keeper.Read more

    Increadible Mac and Cheese!!!!!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I really didn't expect anything less fromj Paula Deen, and I wasn't dissapointed. This recipe is really easy and absolutey... delicious!! Whenever I make it and take it over to my dad's house for supper, I always have to make a double batch so there's plenty leftover for lunch. (even better warmed up the next day!) THANKS SO MUCH PAULA!!!!Read more

    GREAT mac & cheese!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is a great mac & cheese for kids and adults alike. Made a few minor changes and was able to finish in about 40 minutes... from start to finish. Drew raves from the entire family. ? Omit the eggs and use 3 cups shredded cheese. ? Preheat the oven to 375 (convection bake). If not, the conversion usually says regular bake at 400. ? Heat butter, cheese, and milk in medium saucepan over medium-low heat until cheese melts. ? Add sour cream, soup, salt, dry mustard, and pepper. ? Continue stirring occasionally and lower heat (basically, you just want the sauce to be hot). ? When pasta is done, transfer to a casserole dish and cover with sauce. Stir to combine. ? Bake (about 15-20 mins) until you see the ?crust? you want. ? Add some cheese on top (we used the cheddar jack) and broil it until the cheese is melted and crusty! Read more
