Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz elbow macaroni uncooked
  • 4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups milk
  • 12 oz evaporated milk 1 can
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika optional

Instructions
 

  • Grease your crockpot with butter or cooking spray.
  • Add uncooked macaroni, shredded cheese, milk, evaporated milk, butter, eggs, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir until well combined.
  • Cover and cook on low for 2½–3 hours, stirring halfway through, until the pasta is tender and the cheese sauce is creamy.
  • If you like it extra gooey, sprinkle another cup of shredded cheese on top in the last 15 minutes and let it melt before serving.

Notes

For a baked-style top, transfer to a casserole dish after slow cooking, sprinkle with buttered breadcrumbs, and broil until golden. This adds a lovely crunch to the creamy goodness.
