How to Make Alfredo Fettuccine

  1. Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 8 ounces cream cheese until melted and smooth.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  3. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is creamy and smooth. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Cook 1 pound fettuccine according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  5. Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce. Toss gently to coat, adding a little pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley (optional).
  7. Leftovers freeze well for future enjoyment!
