Recipe Tips
For a cheesy, gooey mac and cheese, use extra sharp cheddar cheese. You can also use a combination of cheddar, Monterey Jack, and Parmesan cheese for a more complex flavor. To make this mac and cheese even creamier, add 1/4 cup of heavy cream to the slow cooker before cooking. For a little bit of heat, add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. For a crunchy topping, sprinkle a handful of crushed Ritz crackers on top of the mac and cheese before serving.
