Effortlessly creamy Instant Pot mac and cheese - let the pressure cooker work its magic for a quick and delicious meal.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
  • 1 quart chicken stock
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 0.5 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • In a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot), mix macaroni, chicken stock, salt, dry mustard, liquid smoke, paprika, pepper, and garlic powder. Seal and set to high pressure for 4 minutes following the manufacturer's guidelines. Let pressure build for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Carefully release pressure using the quick-release method following the manufacturer's instructions for about 5 minutes. Then, unlock and remove the lid.
  • Combine butter and milk, followed by melting Cheddar and Parmesan cheese until smooth. Expect a slightly soupy consistency initially.
  • Choose the "Keep Warm" function on the Instant Pot and let the macaroni sit uncovered, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid is absorbed and the texture is smooth and creamy, for around 15 minutes.
