White Cheddar Baked Macaroni and Cheese image

My best friend Lauren gave me this recipe and I changed a couple of things to suit my tastes. It gets so crispy and delicious if you make it in the crockpot. Just follow the same directions except set crockpot to low for a couple hours and you can turn it to high for a little while to get the sides crispy. I love lots of cheese and this recipe definitely satisfies my craving!!
