the ooziest and gooiest mac & cheese !



lets talk about yesterday! yesterday i made mac and cheese! but not just any mac & cheese no no no this was indeed the ultimate ! and to make it better it was all done in the crock pot. from start to finish , no boiling noodles and no turning on that oven. lets get down to business. i am always on the hunt for the best mac and cheese. like the ooziest and gooiest as my sister will tell you. and im sure if she was here yesterday she'd vouch for me ! so here is what you need:

12 oz dry elbow macaroni
1 cup gouda cheese, shredded
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup American cheese, chopped
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)       

In the bowl of the slow cooker, combine the macaroni, cheeses, evaporated milk and milk. Stir until combined and the macaroni is almost completely covered by liquid and cheese. Cover and cook on low for 1½ hours.After 1½ hours, the cheese should be melted and the macaroni should be cooked. Fold and stir in the dry mustard, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Make sure to stir well to make sure all the macaroni is coated with cheesy goodness.
**i also topped with fresh parsley, fresh cracked pepper and a little Parmesan cheese !
