Ingredients

Cooking spray
8 ounces elbow macaroni, cooked
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
A pinch of pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
Two 10-ounce blocks sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded (about 5 cups)
A pinch of paprika

Cook Mode (Keep screen awake) NEW: Now you can switch to Cook Mode to keep your screen from dimming.

Spray a large 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Combine the macaroni, evaporated milk, whole milk, melted butter, salt, pepper, eggs and all but 1 cup of the shredded cheese in the slow cooker. Sprinkle the reserved cheese on top and finish with a dash of paprika. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours and 15 minutes. Once done, turn off the slow cooker, stir gently, and serve warm.

If a slow cooker isn't available, you can butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, pour in the mixture, and bake it at 350F for about 50 minutes.
