To make this Instant Pot macaroni and cheese, I started by dumping a can of condensed chicken broth into my Instant Pot along with some heavy cream.

Then I added some uncooked macaroni noodles to the pot.

I stirred the noodles until they were fully submerged in the liquid and then I put the lid on my Instant Pot.

I turned the steam release handle to the sealing position and then turned on the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 3 minutes.

Once the Instant Pot was done pressure cooking I let it natural release for 6 minutes before turning the steam release handle to do a quick release.

When the steam release valve had gone all the way down I removed the lid from the Instant Pot.

This was so delicious. Followed the directions as written. Will try to add lobster next time, though It doesn't need it.
