Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup salted butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups parmesan cheese (use the real stuff)
  • salt & ground black pepper (to taste)

Instruction

  • Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed deep skillet over medium heat. Once butter is completely melted reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Immediately pour in the cream. Pan may sizzle, but as you stir it will subside.
  • Whisk in cheese and continue stirring until cheese is completely melted and sauce is smooth. Taste and add in salt and lots of pepper, as desired.
  • Use sauce immediately by tossing with hot pasta and serving right away. If it sits, the sauce tends to thicken up, so add in a splash of pasta water to keep things loose.
