Ingredients

500g uncooked elbow pasta

4 cups water

1 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

2 1/2 cups shredded cheese

up to 1/2 cup whole milk

Directions

Noodles

Put the pasta, water, and salt into the Instant Pot. Cook for 4 minutes using the manual function. Quick release the steam so your noodles don’t get overcooked.

Cheese

Gently stir in the butter until melted. Add the cheese and milk (use 2-3 tablespoons of milk at a time, as needed, up to 1/2 cup). Add more seasoning or liquid if necessary. For best results, let it sit for 5-10 minutes to let it thicken up a bit. MWAH! Enjoy. It’s so, so good.
