Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 225 g dried elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • Place 2 cups of water in the Instant Pot, along with the salt and the macaroni. Give it a good stir. Place lid on, seal, and set to manual pressure cooking for 4 minutes.
  • After the 4 minutes are up, open the seal and allow the pressure to release.
  • Stir in the butter, milk, and smoked paprika. Stir until the butter is melted.
  • Add the cheese and continue to stir until it melts. If the sauce is too thin, turn on the sauté feature on the pot and allow it to cook down until you get the desired consistency.
  • Serve immediately.
