Ingredients

  • 16 oz. pasta of your choosing
  • 1/2 cup butter {I use salted}
  • 1 {8 oz.} pkg cream cheese
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 8 oz. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Strain, rinse under cold water, and set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Once melted, add the cream cheese and garlic powder and stir with a wire whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the cream, a little bit at a time, while whisking. Add the chicken stock and stir well, smoothing out any lumps.
  5. Stir in Parmesan, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil, while stirring. Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes, until desired consistency.
  6. Toss Alfredo sauce with pasta and serve warm.
