How To Make Alfredo Sauce With Just 4 Ingredients!

Cut 5 tablespoons of salted butter into tablespoon portions.

Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat.

Mince 2 raw garlic cloves (consider using 2.5 if one is small).

Add minced garlic to the melted butter and warm for about 2 minutes without browning the garlic.

Add 1.5 cups of heavy cream to the saucepan and increase the heat to medium-low.

Bring the cream to a light simmer for about 2-3 minutes, whisking often.

Add 3/4 cup of coarsely ground Parmesan cheese in two halves, whisking to incorporate each half fully before adding the next.

Let the sauce simmer and thicken for a minute or two before removing it from heat.

Taste the sauce to check if it needs salt or pepper before serving.
