Ingredients
- 16 ounces penne pasta
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 cup half & half or heavy cream
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 ½ cups grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg optional
Instructions
Cook the pasta:
- Cook the penne pasta following the package instructions. Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining it.
Make the sauce:
- Over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and stir to toast it for about a minute, ensuring it doesn’t burn.
- Pour in the half & half (or cream) and milk, stirring constantly. Add the grated cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using) and combine. Reduce the heat and continue cooking the Alfredo sauce for about 5 minutes.
Combine:
- Add the cooked pasta to the Alfredo sauce and toss to combine. If your sauce needs a little thinning out, add a little pasta water and stir.
- Serve the pasta with additional parmesan cheese on top.
