Ingredients

• 8 ounce cream cheese, cold or room temperature
• 4 tablespoons (real) unsalted butter
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
• 1 1/2 cups half & half, divided
• 1 cup grated Parmesan
• 1 cup shredded fresh Parmesan
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• salt & pepper, to taste
• fresh parsley for garnishing, optional.

Directions

• In a large skillet on medium heat, put in the cream cheese and butter. Pour in 1 cup of heavy whipping cream and seasonings. Whisk together until cream cheese has melted and all combined. It will be thick. Whisk in 3/4 cup of half & half and bring it to a simmer for a few minutes. Keep whisking! It will begin to thicken up. Add the rest of the of the heavy whipping cream and half & half. Whisk and simmer until it comes to a creamy consistency. Usually takes a few minutes. The longer you let the sauce simmer, the thicker it becomes. If it gets too thick, add a tablespoon of half & half at a time. Turn temperature down to low. Whisk in the grated Parmesan. Stir in the shredded Parmesan. Ready to serve over your favorite pasta!
