On busy oven days or during the holidays when cooking space is limited, this Slow Cooked Triple Cheddar Mac And Cheese is a tasty option. When it comes to slow cooking macaroni and cheese, there are literally 1000's of recipes. What do they have in common? Lots and lots of gooey cheddar cheese and this slow cooker variation is no exception.
Do Slow Cookers Really Cook Differently?
Oh yes, short answer is, they do. Cooking times can vary depending on the shape, size and age of the slow cooker you're using. The slow cooker I use to make this slow cooked mac and cheese, is a little different from the average slow cooker. The difference, is that the heat source is only on the bottom of the slow cooker. So, in the interest of full disclosure, I wanted to show you. When cooking in a conventional slow cooker, which is the type I most often use, the heat source is located on the bottom and the sides of the slow cooker. I've also prepared this in my conventional oval 6 quart slow cooker and it required very little to no adjustment in the cooking time.
Tips For Slow Cooked Triple Cheddar Mac And Cheese Success
Why do I mention this? Funny you should ask...I make a special effort to make sure all of my recipes are presented in a way that you can be successful recreating my dishes. In this slow cooker with the heat source on the bottom only, my mac and cheese cooks in around 2-2 ¼ hours on low. So, in a conventional slow cooker, I recommend you cook on low for 2 hours, and check the center for doneness. It may be completely cooked in that time. After testing a tiny bit from the center sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and keep warm until it melts. If the macaroni and cheese isn't completely cooked, you may need to increase the time by 30 minutes to 1 hour, based on how your slow cooker cooks.
Now Moving On to the Good Stuff
When making this dish, you can certainly shake-up the flavor of cheese used. If you'd like to add a bit of heat, use pepper jack in place of one of the cheddars. Also, when whipping up the sauce make sure it's well blended and use a quality sour cream for the best results.

Norman Allan MacNaughton
Can I ask you what type of dried mustard do you mean in this recipe is it english mustard
Melissa
It's dry ground mustard found on the spice aisle. You can omit, if desired.
Mary Ann Kelley
MY family loves this recipe and has become a favorite for holidays and special celebrations.
Melissa
That's wonderful, Mary Ann, thanks so much for letting me know.
Lisa P.
I've made this twice and while it is very tasty, both times the cheese has clumped up during cooking. I followed the instructions exactly, what am I doing wrong?
Melissa
It's important when making this to whip the sauce ingredients fully and not to stir once you've mixed it into the macaroni at the beginning. Also, the sour cream in the sauce can change texture a bit simply from the cooking process. You may prefer a sauce that doesn't have sour cream in it.
Linda Edge Hudson
Has anyone tried without parboiling the macaroni, using it straight from package? To avoid soiling another pot...
Amy
Not a big egg fan. Do have to use the 3 eggs? What exactly do they do?
Melissa
Eggs serve as a binder in this dish.
Lori
This recipe is literally a major weakness for me. How can you say no to triple cheddar mac and cheese???
Stephanie Manley
Talk about slow cooker goodness, this is coming to friendsgiving with me.
Toni | Boulder Locavore
A new favorite in our house! My whole family loved it!
Joanne
I love how this turned out in the slow cooker. So good!

MY kids will love this, thank you
Aysegul Sanford
Mac and cheese never disappoint. I am drooling over these photos. So yummy.
Ashley @ Wishes & Dishes
This is the best and love that it frees up the oven!
Barbara Schieving
You can't go wrong with triple cheese!
Jennifer
This is my go to mac and cheese recipe. I always get compliments. That being said... can you estimate what 1 serving is? I know it feeds 8-10 but am looking for a little more clarification. Is it 1 cup, 1/2 cup? I am trying to count calories right now and trying to be as exact as possible. Thank you!
Melissa
I'm glad you're enjoying this one, Jennifer. For this recipe when I estimate it could serve 8-10 people, there are always variables depending on appetites. I'm not really referring to cups and measurements in this instance. That said, it can be divided into whatever size serving portion that you desire.
Lori @ RecipeGirl
I'm so in love with this recipe!
Kim
How do you measure dry pasta? Is it literally 2 cups or a 16 oz box. I have never been able to figure our how dry pasta measurements work.
Melissa
It's literally 2 cups in this instance. Don't worry about being exact a little more is OK.
Stephanie Manley
I have got to try this, I have struggled in making slow cooker mac and cheese. I end up with a pasty dish!
Erin
So cheesy!! Love how creamy and easy it is.
Jennifer Farley
In love with all that cheese! Using the slow cooker makes it so easy!
Liz
I love that you used a variety of cheddars---plus the ease of using a slow cooker makes this mac and cheese a winner!
Joanna Cismaru
Look at all that cheese! I love it!
lc
this recipe is great!
Cathy @ Noble Pig
Holy wow, this sounds and looks incredible.
Aysegul
Ohhhh gimme all the cheesy goodness. Love that it is made in a slow cooker with very little hands on time.
Joanne
Classic comfort, and the little bit of dry mustard in here adds great flavor!
Malissa Regan
Hi Melissa,
I'm making this dish for 20-30 people, and I borrowed a huge slow cooker, but this one has settings like an oven... 250, 350, and so on. What temp would I need to set it on to make this recipe?
Thanks!
Melissa
I'm not sure I can tell you exactly as I don't use that type of appliance to make this dish. I might recommend you start at 250 and go from there, trial and error.
Janet
Thank you for this ideal I needed something for the church pot luck and I’m making this I’ll post the results I’m sure they are going to love it.
Salli
Can you make this in the instapot
Melissa
I've never tested it. If you try it, let me know it how it goes.
Michele
I made this about 2 weeks ago. I'm always looking for and making new and different mac and cheese. Well, I did it by the oven method. I really liked it. A 48 year old man really liked it. BUT... my 19 year old son and his 20 year old friend devoured it. Like the whole pan! I didn't realize it until I went to clean up. So, yes, this is a definite keeper and making it again tonight.
Thanks!
P.S.- taking my serving 1st! ????
Melissa
Wonderful, this dish is a real family pleaser. I highly recommend the cook get their portion, first. ☺ Thanks so much for taking the time to comment!
Donna
Hi. I was wondering if you could double this recipe
Melissa
Hi Donna, sure. It may take a bit longer to cook depending on your slow cooker.
Tana Taylor
Melissa can I make this 2 days ahead then cook in oven. Having lg. party Christmas Eve and have a lot to make beside the mac and cheese?
Melissa
Yes, you can assemble this in advance then bring to room temperature and bake just before serving.
Carrie
I am preparing a double batch in an oval crock pot. I have mixed it all this morning and will be turning it on this afternoon. It should be OK to refrigerate until then?
Thanks
Melissa
Yes, no problem at all as long as it's chilled.
Don DeWitt
This the best! My family requests this at least once a week. So easy to make. YUMMY!
Melissa
Wonderful, thanks for letting me know!
Carol Walikangas
Can you double this,recipe in the crockpot
Melissa
I've never tried doubling it for the slow cooker. honestly. If you give a whirl let me know how it goes.
Betty
I plan on making this for the family Easter pot luck. My step daughter hosts so thinking I will mix it up then cook at her house as we always go early to help.
Melissa
Happy Easter to you and yours!
Brian Hulett
I made this recipe the other night and it turned out fantastic. Thank you for sharing your recipe. I think next time I make it I'll mix some crispy bacon bits or ground mild Italian sausage.
Do you ever mix in any extras? If so, what?
I used the oven bake version because I just love the crispy edge that I don't seem to get in a slow cooker.
Melissa
I've mixed rotisserie chicken and steamed broccoli into this and cooked ground beef. It' easy to turn into a casserole, glad you enjoyed it!
wanda
Just got home from the store and completely forgot the sour cream, Will it make a big difference? Thanks!
Melissa
Actually, it would make a difference as it will effect the amount of sauce. Feel free to adapt using a homemade sauce or browse the archives here on my website for ideas.
Susan C
Hi Melissa, I just got your cookbook in the mail today. I cannot wait to try some of the recipes. I bought it AFTER I saw this recipe. I have not tried it yet but planned to today. My husband already went the store for me BUT I forgot to tell him to get the cheddar soup. Now what? How can I get around that s I can fix this today? Susan (Southern girl through and through)
Thank you so much!!!
Melissa
Hi Susan, thanks so much for picking up my book! You can use this same technique using a homemade cheese sauce as well, this version is designed to be quick and easy. Some people aren't fans of Velveeta or Cheez Whiz but, either could be used in place of the soup. Think of it as a thickening agent. Also, I have several mac and cheese recipes here on my website browse the archives for ideas.
NavyGirl
I would like to try this recipe but I am not a fan of sour cream can I use something else?
Melissa
You can use this same technique with a homemade cheese sauce as well. This style of mac & cheese is meant to be quick and easy. For more ideas browse my recipe index I have several kinds of mac & cheese dishes published.
Helen Clark
Wow I doubled this recipe in a large slow cooker and it came out soooo good! I also toasted some panko breadcrumbs in butter and sprinkled on top with the cheese topping. This is a really good recipe. The dry mustard also tastes so good in this.
Melissa
So happy you enjoyed this one Helen, and I love the addition of a crunchy topping. Thanks so much for letting me know!
Kristy
I overcooked my macaroni, it's completely cooked! 🙁 How long should I leave it in Crock-Pot?
Melissa
I'm not certain from your question if you cooked it completely before putting it into the crockpot? If so, follow the recipe instructions for baking if possible.
Cindy
Disappointed, the flavor is ok but the texture is awful, almost has a cottage cheese look. Not appetizing.
Melissa
Sorry this one didn't work for you. The texture of the sour cream after cooking is what you refer to that's why I mention not stirring it again after combined to prevent it from breaking. If you did stir it, that's what happens.
Kim
Good recipe. Needs tweaks. More noodles and less eggs. It curdled for me but probably because I mixed it up. The edges were custard-like but the center was creamy and lovely. My sister also made this tonight and they loved it. Although she did add extra noodles. A roux will always break on me so I'll keep working this recipe. Thanks for posting it.
Teresa
You say to use two cups of dry mac.
I measured out two cups looks pretty soupy. Sure I have used the whole16 oz box?
Melissa
An entire pound would be a lot but, it all depends on your taste. If you prefer more pasta go for it!
Angela
Can you also use Velveeta cheese?
Melissa
Sure, if you like.
Rose
Hi Melissa I found your site on fb and definitely want to try this as I just bought a slow cooker. Problem is I only have a 3qt pot. Do you think it will fit or will it be too much. Please respond asap as I'm about to start making it. Thank you.
Melissa
Hi Rose welcome! I think it will work, but depending on the shape you may need to adjust the cooking time. I've never made this in a 3 quart crockpot and can't advise from personal experience. Rest assured, if you pour it in and there's too much you can bake this in a conventional oven as well.
Rose
*** Update ***
Thank you for the reply and for this delicious recipe. I made it that day and added bacon. It fit perfectly. I really thought there wouldn't be enough for all of us but there was and there was leftovers. I did have to leave it in longer and because my slow cooker heats from the sides the outsides were cooked and not the middle. I ended up having to mix everything around so that it would cook thoroughly. Presentation wasn't the best but it tasted awesome. I will be making it again. Probably in the oven as it took too long in the slow cooker and we were starving
Melissa
You make such a valid point. You always have to adjust cooking time based on your equipment. I'm so happy you all enjoyed this one, thanks for letting me know.
Melissa
Sure! If you have time to bring to room temperature before baking that's ideal. If not, just increase the baking time around 10 minutes.
Sheena
Looks so good!! I'm going to try and do the oven version, can I prepare the dish early in the day and put in fridge to be put in the oven for tonight? Or will it get to soggy sitting for so long?
Melissa
I assure you my slow cooker heats on the bottom and sides. In fact every single conventional slow cooker I've ever owned cooks that way. However, there are always variables between brands and this should be considered by each person evaluating their own appliance for the best slow cooking results.
DenimBlue
Hi, Melissa, you had me at 'southern style.' I noticed that you said conventional slow cookers have heat coming from the sides and from the bottom. This is true for some, yes, but not for all. The original Rival Crock*Pot has heat on the sides only. If Rival has changed their pots, if if no one still has a Rival like that, then you could be correct. However, I think of the conventional slow cooker as being heated only from the sides and not from the bottom.
Melissa
Hi Sarah, I'm so happy you're enjoying this recipe. Honestly, I have never done it so I can't answer from experience. What you could do, is parboil the macaroni ahead of time, and chill. Then it would only take minutes to layer with the cheese and whisk the sauce. If you try putting it together in advance, come back and comment to let others know how it worked out.
Sarah
I love this recipe and have made it several times! I was wondering if it would be possible it mix it up tonight and put it in the fridge so my husband can cook it tomorrow while I'm at work? -Sarah

This site wouldn't let me print. I usually don't have a problem. Love the recipes though.
Melissa
Hi Lisa, it could have been the quality of the milk and/or cheese. I recommend that after you put all of the ingredients into the slow cooker stir to mix. Don't be tempted to stir it AFTER it has cooked as that could also cause the sauce to clump. Sorry you had trouble I hope this helps!
Lisa
So I made this recipe exactly as written with the exception that I used 2% evaporated milk instead of regular evaporated milk. The Mac/Cheese tasted fine but looked curdled...not creamy like everyone commented. Do you think it was the 2% evaporated milk? I was trialing this recipe for a potluck and am hesitant to use it again due to the curdling. Any thoughts?
Melissa
Hi Angel, yes of course! A homemade cheese sauce will work fine, just adjust the remaining liquid to avoid over "saucing." Thanks so much for visiting from the UK!
Melissa
I cooked this mac and cheese on the #2. The #1 setting serves more like a warm setting. Hope this helps!
angel Smith
hi i love the sound of this but being in the uk i am finding it difficult to find a plain cheese soup ( we like ours with Stilton and broccoli) would a cheese sauce be the same cos i would love to try this thanks
mefutch
Sounds Yummy! I love using my Slow Pot(which looks like yours)especially during hot months. My base has setting 1-5. If yours has that, what number would be low?
Melissa
Wonderful Sandy, I'm delighted to hear it!
Sandy S.
I just made this and it was AMAZING! I cooked the pasta 6 minutes and I then cooked it in the crockpot 2 hours and I am in cheese overload. Perfect!! Love it, love it! Thanks bunches.
Melissa
It could. It depends on how your slow cooker cooks. I would check it around 2 hours, testing the enter for doneness. You should be able to tell if it needs to go another 30 minutes at that point. Hope it works out well for you.
Anonymous
I'm making this now. I doubled the recipe. But the pan I had to use is taller rather than short and long. Do you think it will take longer to cook?
Melissa
My slow cooker tends to clean-up quite easily after making this, so it should do well.
Anonymous
This is on my to do list. I have one question, how bad is the clean-up? I generally use disposable pans when making mac & cheese.
Lily Novak
They sell crock pot disposable liners & I use them all the time !! If there are leftovers just pull the liner out & seal with a twist tie & freeze it in a freezer zipped bag or just store if you want to eat it later on in the week !!!
Melissa
Sure Alison, if you prefer margarine.

Could you substitute the butter with margarine?

Oh sure, dry [ground] mustard is readily available on the spice aisle.
Althea Harris
I never cooked with dry mustard, can I get it at any grocery store? If so, what dept. Please?
Melissa
Triple cheddar is a blend of mild, medium and sharp cheddar cheese. Any of your favorite 3 flavors of cheese in equal amounts will work perfectly. Thanks for visiting!

What would your suggestion be for the triple cheese as we don't have the kraft triple cheese block here in Australia. .
Melissa
Go for it, Jim!
Jim Frasure
Why not kick it up with a pinch of cumin and Chipolte Pepper powder???

Hi Rebecca, if you don't have it, leave it out, it will still be delicious, enjoy!

Will this taste much different if I leave out the dry mustard? Thanks!

Hi Shelley, thanks for visiting. Oh sure, a basic cheddar cheese bechamel would work beautifully!

Hi. I live somewhere where we can't buy Cheese soup. Any suggestions. This looks so Yummy, and I really want to try it! Shelley (Ontario, Canada)

I never cover mac and cheese when baking, so, definitely uncovered.
mary
in a regular oven should you cook covered or uncovered--- its cooking now please respond!!
Melissa
Gina, I'm so happy to hear, it, thanks for stopping by! ~ Melissa
Gina
I made this today for Thanksgiving and it came out beautifully. I about doubled the recipe in my slow cooker, but didn't seem to matter. Everyone talked about how good it tasted. Definite two thumbs up.
Melissa
Yes, doubling in a 6 quart slow cooker should be fine. An oval would be ideal, so be mindful of your slow cooker, and it's shape, and adjust the time as needed. Once cooked, for the best results, serve it then. If it's necessary, once cooked, keep it on the lowest setting to prevent changing the texture of the pasta.
heidi
after reading recipe and comments...i think i am gonna try your mac n cheese.....i have a thanksgiving lunch at work on tues...about 20 people i suppose....i have a 6 qrt crock pot and you mentioned that doubling recipe is ok....you did mean doubling in a 6qrt right....it will all fit right ? 🙂 any suggestions on cooking/keeping warm?....i go to work at 5 am and we'll b eating lunch about 11?
Melissa
When slow cooking, generally a dish that cooks on low for 2 hours, would cook in 1 hour on high. This could vary based on how your slow cooker performs. So, I would recommend checking it at 1 hour. If the center is creamy but set when gently shaken, it's done. If not, continue to cook and check it every 15 minutes to avoid over cooking.
Cricket
For some reason, my slow cooker does nothing on low. How long would I cook this on high?
Erin Copeland
Looks fantastic!
Melissa
It should be creamy, but set when gently shaken.

It's in the crock pot and looks yummy! What does it look like in the middle when you check if it's ready? Mines a little watery still
Melissa
Wonderful, so happy to hear you enjoyed this dish. Rotini pasta does make a yummy mac-n-cheese, good call. ☺

I made this tonight to go with dinner and omg is it ever yummy!! I used the oven method as nobody wanted to wait for it to cook in the crockpot. Thank you so much for this recipe...no more boxed mac n cheese here! This is just yummy gooey cheesy goodness, and so easy! I didn't have elbow macaroni so I used rotini...it really holds the cheese sauce in!
Melissa
Great idea, so happy you enjoyed.
Anonymous
I just made this tonight for dinner! It was very yummy! I added French's french fried onions for a bit of a crunch!
Melissa
I use Campbell's Cheddar Cheese soup. It holds up quite well to the slow cooking process, and blends with the milk and cheese beautifully. Enjoy!
kaykay
Hi melissa, what brand of cheese soup do you use?
Melissa
Sure!

Can I freeze the left overs Melissa?

Michelle, thanks so much for leaving a comment about how this dish is without eggs. I'm delighted you enjoyed it! ~ Melissa

I made this tonight & it was amazing. I left the eggs out & used medium shell noodles because I didn't have any elbows. Wonderfully moist & cheesy!
Melissa
Sure, I haven't had a problem with it drying out. However, I wouldn't recommend leaving it for an extended length of time.
Anonymous
Bowing can you keep on warm before serving , so it doesn't dry out?
Melissa
The best way to test is to take a small sample from the center. You can tell if it's cooked through in the center by the warmth and texture. Sure hope your guests enjoy, we love it!
Anonymous
How do I know when its completely cooked, im cooking it now and I doubled the recipe for a party, im a little iffy on whether our not its done...thanks!
Melissa
This recipe will work in a 6 quart oval, and yes, it would also do fine if you need to double the recipe. Depending on how your crock pot cooks, the time may need to be increased, but, I would still check it at the 2 hour point and make any necessary adjustments from there. Hope this helps!
Anonymous
My crock pot is a large oval one. Do you think a doubled recipe will fit?
Melissa
Oh my, you could substitute whole milk for the evaporated milk. if you have Velveeta on hand you could use it instead,. Melt prior to adding it to the slow cooker.

Melissa, I do most of my cooking in a Celebrating Home Bean Pot. I will bake it for 45 minutes and check it. It generally cuts the time at least in half. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Roxanne
What temperature would you use in the Bean Pot? That's how I like to make recipes also.
Melissa
Hi Roxanne, I've never made this in a bean pot, sorry.
Cat
What is triple cheddar cheese? I do not recall seeing this. Does it come in a package? And what are three cheddars? I am guessing white, mild and sharp?????
Melissa
Any blend of cheddar cheese will work you have complete control of what you use. The triple blend I used was Vermont, New York and sharp cheddar. You can use any blend of cheese that suits your fancy. This recipe was designed to be quick, easy and low stress so, I used a packaged triple cheddar cheese however, freshly grated cheese is always best.
Melissa
Hi Rhonda, sounds good to me, go for it!
Rhonda
Might could add ham...make it a meal! Not that mac and cheese alone isn't a meal...it's my FAV food group!

I did it with ham chunks, it was awesome, that is the only way my family will eat mac and cheese!

Kasha
Do you have to use an egg in this mac n cheese dish? I have an egg allergy and tend to stay away when i can.
samy
i didnt use egg and turned out perfect just omitting the egg
Melissa
Hi Robyn, I wouldn't recommend making this without parboiling the macaroni first. The key is not to overcook the pasta, or the outcome could be mushy. Thanks for your visit, Melissa
Melissa
Hi Kasha, I've never made this dish without eggs, but, I suspect it would still work. The eggs serve as a binder for the cheese sauce, so, it would likely have just a bit more liquid. If you try it, let me know! ~ Melissa
Robyn
Instead of cooking the pasta first, could it be put in dry and have the same outcome?
Gary
How do you know if one has a crock-pot with only Bottom Heat?
Gary
Melissa
Most have surround heat, no worries at all. Cook this for 2 hours then check the center and you'll be good to go.
