Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)

4 cloves fresh garlic, minced

2 cups heavy cream

1½ cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

Optional: pinch of nutmeg

Instructions

Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Watch it closely – you want it to melt gently and start to foam without browning.

Add Garlic: Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Pour in the Cream: Gradually stir in the heavy cream, bringing this mixture to a gentle simmer and allowing it to thicken slightly (about 3-5 minutes).

Add Parmesan: Reduce the heat to low and gradually whisk in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until melted and the sauce is creamy.

Season: Taste and season with salt, black pepper, and if desired, a pinch of nutmeg.

Serve: Toss the sauce with your favorite pasta or use it as a base for a baked dish.

Notes
