    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Maddymoo

    List of Ingredients




    1 3/4 Cups Heavy Cream
    6 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
    1 Cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
    Salt & Black Pepper
    1 Pound Fresh Pasta (Fettuccine Is Most Commonly Used)

    Recipe



    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While waiting for the water to heat for the pasta, in a separate pot, heat together the cream and butter over medium heat until bubbling. Turn the burner to it's lowest setting, and drop in the pasta. Cook the pasta only a couple of minutes until it is al dente. Drain the pasta, and return it to the pasta pot. Add the cream mixture, salt and pepper to taste, and cheese and toss well over medium heat until the sauce has thickened. Serve immediately with additional grated parmesan if desired.

    Variations:

    Seafood: Briefly cook four shrimps, or scallops per person in butter until cooked through. Divide evenly among the four plates and serve.

    Gorgonzola Alfredo: Crumble 4 ounces Italian Gorgonzola cheese into the hot cream mixture before adding it to the pasta.
