Ingredients:
1/2 lb Bacon, cut into small pieces
2 Tbsp Butter
1 Small Yellow Onion, finely chopped
1 lb Elbow Macaroni
4 Cups Water
1 Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Ground Mustard
1 Tsp Onion Powder
1 Tsp Paprika
1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
3/4 Cup Heavy Cream
4 oz Cream Cheese, softened
8 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
8 oz Gouda Cheese, shredded
Directions:
Slice the bacon. Turn the Instant Pot on to the sauté setting. Add the bacon and cook until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove to a paper towel lined plate. Set aside. Do not discard the bacon drippings.
Add the butter to the bacon fat (Instant Pot should still be on the sauté setting). Once melted, add the onions and sauté until translucent.
Add the water and scrape off any bits stuck to the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add the noodles and salt. Stir to combine.
Close the lid and make sure the valve is in the sealed position. Pressure cook on HIGH for 3 minutes. Quick release the steam and remove the lid.
Turn the Instant Pot to the sauté / low setting. Add the ground mustard, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Add the heavy cream and softened cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is melted.
Add the cheddar and gouda cheese, about 1 cup at a time, and stir until combined and melted.
Add the bacon and stir to combine.
Serve warm with additional bacon on top, some chopped chives, or toasted breadcrumbs. Enjoy!
