Instructions
Step 1

Cook the elbows in a large saucepot according to the package directions except reduce the cooking time by 1 minute.  Drain the elbows in a colander (you'll be using the pot again to make the sauce).

Step 2

While the elbows are cooking, heat the oven to 375°F and spray 12 muffin-pan cups with cooking spray.

Step 3

Heat the soup, milk and black pepper in the saucepot over medium-low heat until hot.  Add the cream cheese and Cheddar cheese and cook and whisk until smooth.  Stir in the mustard, if desired.

Step 4

Add the cooked elbows to the soup mixture and stir to coat.  Add the egg and mix well.  Divide the mixture among the muffin-pan cups.  Sprinkle each with about 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese and a pinch of paprika.

Step 5

Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly at the edges.  Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.  Run a knife around the edges of the cups before removing from the pan to serve.
