Alfredo Sauce

RuthlessWr's Note:

This is the Alfredo sauce that my family likes best. I have only tried it with Kraft grated parmesan cheese, not anything imported or fancy, and I still like the way it tastes. It is creamy, but not terribly thick, and really cheesy.

I've never had a go-to alfredo recipe, but I do now! This is it. Excellent flavor, thickened nicely, smooth and creamy. Excellent over homemade fettucine. I stuck to recipe, but added a sprinkle of fresh-grated nutmeg at the end. Thank you for sharing this super-easy, delicious recipe. Bem gostoso!

It's perfect. What else can I say? Alfredo is probably the simplest, easiest pasta sauce out there & it's also one of the best. This recipe is spot-on.
