- Add in 16 ounces of macaroni noodles, or any other shape that your heart desires.
- Then add 4 cups of chicken broth, use low-sodium chicken broth if you prefer.
- Add in 2 tablespoons of stone ground mustard, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and give it a good stir until that black pepper and mustard is well dispersed.
- Place the lid on and make sure that it is secure.
- Then we’re gonna put it on high pressure for 5 minutes.
- While that is cooking we’re gonna grate 3 cups of cheddar cheese.
- Once your pressure cooker is done cooking, carefully release the pressure valve.
- Then carefully remove the lid and then add in 3 cups of cheese.
- Then add in 1/2 cup of heavy cream or half and half.
- Stir this altogether until that cheese has melted and it becomes nice and creamy.
- At this point if you want your sauce a little less thick, feel free to add another 1/4 cup of heavy cream.
- Your Instant Pot Mac and Cheese is ready!
