354mlevaporated or whole milk(about 1 1/3 cups)
1 3/4cupslow sodium chicken broth

1/8 teaspoonblack pepper
2ozcream cheeseroom temperature
2 1/2cupsshredded cheddar cheese(175g)
Instructions
Spray 2.5-4 quart crock pot with non stick spray.
Pour in dry pasta, then add evaporated milk, broth, butter, salt, sriracha, mustard and pepper. Stir to combine, breaking up the butter as much as possible but know that it will still be chunky.
Cover and cook on low for 1 hour. Stir well (it might be clumpy, but will come apart easily as you stir). Cover and cook for 30 more minutes or until al dente or slightly firm (you don't want it too soft at this point).
Cut the cream cheese into very small pieces and stir into the pasta with the cheddar cheese. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes, then stir to melt.
