This was very good and very rich! I served this as a main dish for me with a salad ,and as a side for my husband with minute steaks and green beans.I made this as stated in the recipe but,I thought it could have used some garlic also.Very creamy and smooth sauce,easy to fix,and that makes this a winner for me!

Loved this recipe, i used penne pasta and olice oil in place of the butter, the next time that i made it i added some pesto sauce and parmesan cheese.. Now that makes the tastebuds dance
