This was SO good! I eyeballed the measurements, and it was super quick and easy to make. The only change I made was adding a sprinkle of sea salt. This recipe will be going into regular rotation...

I made this with every intention of only eating half, but I ate the whole thing! I even halved the butter AND the Parmesan, still delicious! I’m definitely making this again.
