Step 3

Add the garlic, stir to combine, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant; stir frequently.

Step 4

Step 5

Add the remaining 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter and heat until it has melted; stir frequently to encourage melting.

Step 6

Add the heavy cream, tomato sauce, stir to combine, and allow mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, or until sauce has thickened and reduced slightly. Taste and if desired, add additional salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, etc.

Step 7
