Notes
- Recipe Tips:
- Sauce too thin? Adding a bit more Parmesan cheese typically does the trick to thicken the sauce, but you can also add flour. To make it thicker and more cheesy, you can also add 1/2-1 cup shredded Parmesan or mozzarella cheese before serving.
- Sauce too thick? You can always add a little pasta cooking water or more heavy cream to thin the sauce.
- Store. Place in an airtight container(s) and store it in the fridge for up to 5 days, or put it in a Freezer Ziploc, remove as much air as possible, and freeze for up to 3 months.

- To reheat. It’s best to reheat it slowly over low heat on the stove. Stir it continuously to keep the sauce together. If needed, add a splash of milk or heavy cream to smooth out the sauce.
