Ingredients

  • ½ Cup Butter no subs
  • 2 Cups Heavy Cream
  • 2 oz. Cream Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Salt
  • teaspoon White Pepper
  • 2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning Blend
  • ½ Cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 1 Cup Milk

Instructions

  • In a small pot over medium heat, bring the butter and heavy cream to a boil, picture 2. No, this will not break the cream.
  • Boil until the cream and butter are reduced by nearly half, thicken to coat the back of a spoon, and have a yellow tint to it, picture 3.
  • Turn the heat down to low.
  • Add the cream cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, garlic salt, white pepper and parmesan cheese.
  • Stir well and whisk in the milk.
  • At this point, you want the sauce to be hot and melt the cream cheese and parm, but you don't want it to boil again.
  • Once the cream cheese and parmesan are melted and blended in, take the alfredo off the heat and use as desired.

Notes

  • After adding the milk, be sure not to allow the sauce to boil, or the sauce may break and become gritty.
  • Use this sauce in place of bottled alfredo in the same amounts the recipe you want to use calls for.
