Alfredo Sauce Recipe

Melt butter in a pan large enough to accommodate the pasta with room to toss it without spilling. Over moderate heat, add cooked pasta and mix well with the butter. Add half of the cream and toss with a fork and spoon. Add half of the cheese and toss to incorporate well, adding more cream a little at a time-the cream should be barely noticeable when the dish is finished, use only enough to keep the pasta from sticking together. Keep tossing and add the rest of the cheese and if needed more cream. Toss until the cheese has melted. Remove to a heated serving dish and top with extra Parmesan cheese and a few turns of the pepper mill to taste. Serve immediately.
