There is an Italian restaurant that my husband and I just happened upon. It's the real deal, owned and operated by an Italian family. My husband loved their Fettuccine Alfredo, the sauce was so thick you could eat it with a fork. The restaurant is a good ways from home and he had a craving for it, so I looked for a recipe that might work, I found several different ones and kind worked from each one til I found the right combination. It was just what he was looking for so he had me write it down so I wouldn't forget the next time I tried to fix it. I'm bad about that, coming up with a new recipe and not being able to remember it the next time. Thought I might share it. Thick and creamy! Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
8 ounces cream cheese |
8 ounces half-and-half cream |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
black pepper (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in sauce pan.
2. Add cream cheese and whisk as you add half-and-half.
3. Whisk until smooth adding cheese, garlic powder and pepper.
4. Simmer until heated through.
5. Pour over any pasta you choose, we even liked it on cheese tortellini.
6. Serve with a nice green salad, garlic bread, and a nice glass of wine.
7. Very filling!
8. Thanks so much for all the reviews! This is a recipe that is basic, as you can see from all the suggestions! I hope that everyone continues to enjoy it, review it, and add your suggestions! Thanks again! GRITS.
