Warm fuzzies in a bowl.
How to cook Macaroni and Cheese in the slow cooker.
I just learned a wonderful word: hygge. It’s Danish, and it’s pronounced sort of like “hoo-gah.” But what it means is more like “hug” – or like the feeling of a hug. You know, all warm and cozy and friendly and welcoming.
Anyway, it turns out hygge is a trend that’s really catching on in the USA. People in the know are skipping the hot night clubs and staying home, snuggled up in front of a fire in their jammies. They’re reading books, playing board games with friends…and eating comfort food. Because a crucial part of hygge is meals that give you that same warm and cozy glow.
The Best Creamy Crockpot Mac and Cheese fits the new trend perfectly. It’s a bowl full of warm, creamy comfort: soft, chewy noodles swimming in a rich, cheesy sauce loaded up with sour cream, butter, and just a hint of garlic and mustard for zing. It’s the closest thing there is to a hug that you can eat. Never mind about the fireplace and the jammies. So long as you have a bowl of this in front of you, you’ve got the warm and cozy vibe down pat.
DIRECTIONS:
- Cook pasta according to package for al dente style. Place cooked pasta in a 5-6qt
slow-cooker.

- Next add in shredded cheeses and gently stir
again.

- It really is the best!
