Alfredo Sauce
Ingredients:
1 pint of Heavy Cream
1 stick of butter
2 Tbsp. Cream Cheese
1/2 - 3/4 C. Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. Garlic powder
Preparation:
In a saucepan combine butter, heavy cream, and cream cheese. Simmer this
until all is melted, and mixed well. Add the Parmesan cheese and Garlic
powder. Simmer this for 15 - 20 minutes on low. You may wish to season with
a little salt and pepper. I have done this with half and half, but we prefer
the heavy cream. But I wouldn't try it with plain milk.
