10 ½ ounces condensed cream of chicken soup
3 cups cheddar cheese shredded
1 cup Gruyere cheese shredded
½ cup mayonnaise (or cream cheese0
½ cup sour cream regular or light
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
½ teaspoon pepper

Boil macaroni noodles according to directions to make them very al dente. (I cook them for at least 1-2 minutes less than directed on the bag. Mine boiled for 5 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water.

Combine all ingredients in a 4qt slow cooker and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 3 hours, stirring once or twice.

Optional- you can mix everything and then put in a oiled casserole dish

 350 degrees for 30 min

One time I made pasta the night before and then made sauce separately and then next day combined and warmed them up together

Ingredient List

• I box (16 ounce of elbow macaroni)
• 1 cup of heavy whipping cream ( 1 can of evaporated milk(12 ounce) would work or even whole milk)I think I added a little more till I got the consistency I was looking for- (Tablespoon at a time)
• 3 Tb of butter
• 2 tsp salt
• 2 cups of shredded Sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 cups of water

Bring water, salt, and butter to boil first, then Add macaroni and lock lid on. When it is steaming/venting then start time for 6 minutes for white pasta and 7-8 minutes for whole wheat pasta (take about 5 min to build pressure).
Then put the cooker with the lid on, in the sink run cold water over it to make it cool down fast.
Put pot back on stove, pour in whipping cream, cheese and stir till it melts. and Enjoy!!!

4/16/18 I used whole wheat noodles the first time and I think it needed to cook 7-8 minutes. So remember than for next time.
