The Richest Alfredo Sauce image

There is an Italian restaurant that my husband and I just happened upon. It's the real deal, owned and operated by an Italian family. My husband loved their Fettuccine Alfredo, the sauce was so thick you could eat it with a fork. The restaurant is a good ways from home and he had a craving for it, so I looked for a recipe that might work, I found several different ones and kind worked from each one til I found the right combination. It was just what he was looking for so he had me write it down so I wouldn't forget the next time I tried to fix it. I'm bad about that, coming up with a new recipe and not being able to remember it the next time. Thought I might share it. Thick and creamy!

Easy to make and turned out great! I used heavy cream instead of milk and it was super creamy. I also added some chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese at the end. Served it over pasta and it was a crowd-pleaser.

I made this sauce last night and it was delicious! I used a little less butter than the recipe called for and it was still plenty rich. I also added a pinch of garlic powder and it really took the flavor up a notch. Will definitely be making this aga

This is the best Alfredo sauce I've ever had! It's so creamy and flavorful. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. I served it over fettuccine noodles and it was a hit with my family.
