Recipe: Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

I slept in for the second time this week, not up before the sun.  We all did, curled and cozy underneath the  blanket for warmth.  We are going to Charleston Arkansas today, hopefully we will have pics to  show off.   When I get back I'm making Alfredo Sauce, for our Ladies Night, recipe follows.  I going to substitute garlic powder with fresh garlic roasted in oil, much better.



Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce

Make Alfredo sauce just like the Olive Garden, one try with this dish, and you will never buy bottled or a package of Alfredo sauce again.

Ingredients

  • 1 pint of heavy cream
  • 1/4 pound of butter (one stick)
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese **optional, and not pictured in the video
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese **do not use cheese that has been pre-shredded or pre-grated
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

In a saucepan, combine butter, and heavy cream. Simmer until all is melted and mixed well. Add the Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes on low. You may wish to add a little salt and pepper. I have made this with half and half, but we prefer the heavy cream.
