Creamy Alfredo

This creamy Alfredo sauce is incredible and pairs perfectly with any pasta dish.  It is my favorite next to Olive Garden’s Alfredo sauce.  The texture and taste is perfect and really livens up any pasta dish.  If i’m not in a rush when I make my chicken alfredo bake, then I use this recipe and it makes that dish so much better!

  • Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 oz Cream cheese
  • 4 Tbsp Butter
  • 3 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 C Fresh grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 C Mozzarella Cheese
  • 3 cups Heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large sauce pan saute the garlic and butter together for about 2 minutes on medium heat. 
  2. Add the cream cheese until melted about 3 more minutes.
  3. Slowly mix in the heavy cream, and then add the parmesan cheese. 
  4. Mix until there are no lumps and the sauce is nice and hot.
  5. Add salt, pepper and additional garlic powder (if desired), stirring continuously for about 5 minutes.
  6. Add the mozzarella cheese and stir until sauce becomes creamy (not lumpy).
  7. Serve sauce immediately on your favorite dish (If sauce rests for too long it tends to become too thick or separates as it cools), and ENJOY!.

Notes

  • PRO TIP:  Make sure that you are cooking it no hotter than medium heat, so not to burn the sauce and please stir constantly.
  • PRO TIP:  If sauce separates or becomes to thick, add more cream and reheat.
