Here is the
creamiest, cheesiest mac-n-cheese you’ll find!
My Crock Pot
Mac-n-Cheese will feed a crowd, and it is great for the holidays.

Everyone needs a quality, homemade mac-n-cheese recipe.
This one is extra special because it comes together in the
crock pot – allowing you to time to tackle other things – a load of laundry, a
school pick up, maybe even watch a movie?
So much cheesy greatness goes into this dish and the crock
pot brings it all together!
With the holidays right around the corner, AE Dairy and I wanted to showcase their Heavy Whipping
Cream. It’s a fun ingredient in many holiday dishes, because as we know
many holiday dishes are decadent!
I wanted to do something savory and after suggesting this
mac-n-cheese they were on board. Thanksgiving and Christmas bring a lot of
family dinners and gatherings where food is the star of the show.
And let’s face it, if you are making mac-n-cheese you need a
liquid (often milk) to bring it all together, so why not heavy whipping cream?
Its richness is superior.
AE’s heavy
whipping cream has a fresh, pure taste with a smoother consistency than
other creams. They call it “heavy” because it has a higher butterfat compared
to most others. Made with cream that is hours fresh from Iowa family farms,
this whipping cream is one of the only in the market that is all natural
without stabilizers.
I can attest, it’s creamy beyond words.
This mac-n-cheese is AMAZING.
And let me be honest, it’s not just a milk and cheese dish.
There is so much more. So much, you may think, “is this too much”?
It’s not.
Four different cheeses, one odd ingredient you’ve probably
never seen in mac-n-cheese, two types of milk and a few seasonings.
This mac-n-cheese travels well (ahem, crock pot) and can
even be cooked at your destination if not eating right away (it takes around two
hours). What is there not to like about it?
I made it again last week and even kept it on warm in the
crock pot for another three hours stirring here and there and it was just fine.
It’s a great side dish for busy families. We ate this on a
night when we needed to attend our daughter’s home basketball game. When we got
home it was perfect!
I’m waiting on bated breath to see you guys make this.
Bring it to your family’s Thanksgiving table, perhaps a work
potluck or your Christmas gift exchange. I promise it will go fast!
