Step 1

In a large skillet over medium heat, add butter, heavy whipping cream, and cream cheese (if using). Stir over low heat for about 2 minutes until melted and it starts to lightly simmer.

Step 2

Next, whisk in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper for one minute. Note: For extra garlicky flavor, first melt the butter, add the garlic and cook for 1 minute and then add the ingredients from step 1.

Step 3

Reduce heat to low and add in the shredded Parmesan cheese, and continue to whisk until melted.

Step 4

Serve immediately with your favorite pasta.

Step 5

For a very subtle nutty flavor, sprinkle some nutmeg on top before serving.
