Cook the garlic until soft and then add the cream. Increase the parm by 1/2 cup and it's a keeper. Read More

Added some mozzarella cheese to it and it thickened it up nicely. Served over spinach ravioli and it was delicious. Took leftovers and put them in a baking dish…dinner, two days later! Read More

This would not thicken with just a 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. I added an extra 3/4 cup plus more pepper (I used black pepper because that’s what I had). Finally started to thicken with the addition of mozzarella cheese. End results were very good with the extra cheese and pepper. The recipe would not have worked otherwise. Read More

This will thicken up much better with a tablespoon or so of corn starch or flour. No need to add all that extra cheese. Also a splash of lemon juice is always welcome in Alfredo Sauce. Read More

This was so good and easy to make. I didn’t have fresh garlic so used a teaspoon of powdered garlic which worked just fine. There is none left for a picture!!!! Read More
