Ingredients

    1.
    Butter
    Butter
    4 tablespoon
    2.
    Heavy Cream
    Heavy Cream
    2 cup
    3.
    Parmesan Cheese
    Parmesan Cheese
    3-½ cup, shredded

Instructions

    1.
    In a medium-sized pot over low heat, melt the butter. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream, ensuring it's well combined. Heat the mixture to just below a simmer, being careful not to boil.
    2.
    Gradually whisk in the parmesan cheese in half-cup additions, allowing each addition to fully melt into the cream before adding the next. This ensures a smooth and creamy sauce. Add black pepper or other desired seasonings at this point for extra flavor. Salt is typically not needed due to the saltiness of the parmesan.
    3.
    Let the Alfredo sauce simmer gently for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow it to thicken to your desired consistency. Remove from heat and set aside to cool for about 5 minutes before using. This recipe yields approximately 3 cups of sauce.
