Remove skillet from heat and let cool slightly.

In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks and grated pecorino romano cheese.

Add cooked spaghetti to the skillet with guanciale, tossing to combine.

Pour egg and cheese mixture over spaghetti, stirring quickly to create a creamy sauce.

Season with freshly cracked black pepper to taste.

If needed, add a splash of pasta water to loosen the sauce.

Serve immediately.
