One Skillet Cheesy Homemade Hamburger Helper

Brown ground beef in a large skillet that can be covered with a lid or foil. Drain any excess grease. Turn the heat off and add pasta, Dijon mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, ground cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper, beef broth and milk. Stir to combine and bring to a very low boil. Cover with lid and turn to simmer. Cook until pasta is tender, approximately 12–15 minutes. Remove from heat.

Place cream cheese in a small microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds at 50% power. Remove from microwave and stir until smooth. If it is not warm enough to stir until smooth, microwave in 15-second 50% power intervals until it can be stirred smooth.

Stir cheddar cheese and softened cream cheese into pasta, alternating between the two. If necessary, turn the heat on low to aid with the blending and mixing of cheese.
