Suggested Number of Servings: 10 Servings

Ingredients:

• 1-16oz pkg elbow macaroni.
• half a loaf of velveeta cheese, cubed, 1lb
• 2 cups of cheddar cheese, reserve 1/2 cup to put on the top when done mixing up.
• 1-2 cups of mozarella
• 8oz of muenster or provolone
• 16oz carton of cottage cheese, any curd
• 16oz carton of sour cream
• 1 stick of butter, cut into pats
• 1/2 t. salt
• 1-2c. milk

Instructions:

Cook the elbow macaroni til it is just starts to get tender but is yet a bit firm.

Drain, put in your big big crock pot.

To it add:

• half a loaf of velveeta cheese, cubed
• 2 cups of cheddar cheese, reserve 1/2 cup to put on the top when done mixing up.
• 1-2 cups of mozarella
• 8oz of muenster or provolone
• 16oz carton of cottage cheese, any curd
• 16oz carton of sour cream
• 1 stick of butter, cut into pats
• a little salt

Stir, add milk to fill in the gaps.
Top with remaining cheddar cheese.
Put crock on low for about 4-5 hours. Prior to serving, the last hour.. put up to high. this causes it to ‘burn’ and get crunchy around the bottom and top.. the best part.

Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Total Time: 330 Minutes

Additional Comments:
Just enjoy it. It is so filling. I made this for our wedding reception… bigger batch of course.. and there was nothing left.
And each time I made still today.. there are no leftovers.
You can also add other cheeses to your liking. Mexican white-soft cheese is very good. So is Gerrman butter cheese. Experiment a bit.
