Crock Pot Mac and Cheese

We all like this recipe.  I put the noodles in uncooked but you could precook them if you wanted to speed up the cooking process.  Because I have made Crock Pot Mac and Cheese in the past unsuccessfully, I was a little nervous. I stirred this every 30 minutes because I was concerned it would burn. The last hour I left it alone. If I had left it alone sooner, it would have made a nice crust on the bottom just like it does when cooked in the oven. 

Let me know if you try this recipe and what you think.

Crock Pot Mac and Cheese
4 cups milk
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp brown mustard
1 stick of butter (slice in Tbsp.)
4 cups cheese (I used 2 cups sharp cheddar and 2 cup Monterey Jack)
16 oz Elbow noodles

Combine in crock pot - milk, eggs, salt, pepper, and mustard.  Stir together. Add cheese and butter. Stir. Add uncooked noodles. Stir. Cook on high for 1 hour. Stir at least once. Leave it alone and it will taste like it came from the oven minus the crispy top.  Lower the temp to low and cook until done. I cooked mine 2 more hours.
