Fettuccine Alfredo

6-8 oz. fettuccine
1/4 Cup butter (not margarine)
1 Cup good parmesan cheese (Kraft if you buy grated parmesan)
1/2 Cup heavy cream
1 Tbs. finely chopped parsley
salt & garlic to taste

Bring a big pot of water to boil add your fettuccine and start prep for
the sauce. Chop your parsley fine and set aside.

Grate the parmesan as fine as possible and set aside. In a small sauce pan MELT butter but DO NOT BOIL IT!

Remove from heat and stir in parmesan and then slowly stir in the cream. (*Add salt and garlic at this point if you are going to) Return to heat at lowest setting and stirring frequently until it just comes to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in parsley and serve over fettuccine with asprig of parsley for garnish.

Try it without the salt and garlic at first and add some to taste
after a few trys. Its very tasty without and you should only use them
is very small amounts as it is very easy to overpower the sauce.
