Alfredo Sauce Recipe

This sauce is commonly served on fettuccine, but don't limit it to noodles. It also turns gnocchi into something rather sumptuous.

Servings: 4-6, enough for 1 lb. noodles or gnocchi

Ingredients

1/2 lb. butter, minced
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps

Rinse a large serving bowl with hot water and pat dry. Cook noodles or gnocchi and drain. Place in the warmed serving bowl. Add the butter and toss lightly. Sprinkle with grated cheese and mix again until the butter is completely dissolved and the pasta is well coated. Serve at once.

If you want a more colorful dish you can sprinkle it with minced parsley just before serving.
