Step 1

Whisk together butter, garlic and half & half in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer (do not boil), then remove from heat.

Step 2

Stir in cheese, a handful at a time. Gently stir until the cheese melts before adding the next handful.

Step 3

Return pan to burner over medium heat. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Stir until cheese sauce is smooth and the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove pan from heat and allow sauce to cool for 5 minutes. Alfredo sauce will thicken even more as it cools.

Step 4

Serve and enjoy!
