Alfredo is one of my favorite dishes to make for my family. Of course, I meal plan and at times like most people. I forget to take the list with me in the store, and of course when have those moments where I forget that I even have a list with me. Yup, those target moments. I was in the process of prepping for dinner. I started to look for the store brought alfredo sauce and it was nowhere in sight. I'm so happy that we used what we had on hand because my family raved about this homemade alfredo sauce. Not only was it yummy. But it was super fast to make and it tastes 10x better than the store brought.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 (8 ounces) package cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 cups of milk
- 6 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
- Melt butter in a medium, non-stick saucepan over medium heat.
- Add cream cheese and garlic powder, stirring with wire whisk until smooth.
- Add milk, a little at a time, whisking to smooth out lumps.
- Stir in Parmesan and pepper. Remove from heat when sauce reaches desired consistency.
- The sauce will thicken rapidly, thin with milk if cooked too long.
- Toss with hot pasta and serve.
