2day's recipe: Creamy Macaroni and Cheese (slow-cooker)

Here is a slow-cooker recipe for Mac n Cheese (from Paula Deen).  It's not my sister's recipe, which totally rocks but it is very yummy.  Remember to change things up a bit if you want - add your favorites, fresh spinach, tomatoes, chicken, etc.  Enjoy :-)



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

 
InstructionsBoil 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.
