Cuisine: Italian
Prep Time: 0 minutes
Cook Time: 10 to 15 minutes
Total Time: 10 to 15 minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter
- 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
Here's how to make it:
- Put the heavy cream and butter into a skillet. Cook over medium heat until butter melts and is thoroughly incorporated into the cream.
- Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted.
- To make fettuccine alfredo, cook fettuccine in salted water until al dente. Using a pasta spoon or tongs, transfer the pasta directly from the cooking pot with water into the sauce. This will allow some of the cooking water on the noodles to help thin the sauce a bit. Stir to combine and then add another 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese.
