Creamy Macaroni and Cheese

Creamy Macaroni and Cheese

September 16, 2017

This recipe makes a very delicious and creamy dish.  You have to be careful and not burn the cheese around the edge of the crock pot.

I use Velveeta® sharp Cheddar cheese and skip the part about melting in a pan with butter.  I add the butter and cut up Velveeta® directly into the slow cooker.
