Alfredo Sauce

I use this for making Chicken Alfredo.  Easy-Peasy.

Ingredients

8 oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup cream or 1/2 and 1/2
2/3 cup freshly grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
5 cloves of garlic, minced

Melt cream cheese in in heavy-bottomed sauce pan.*
In another pan, melt the butter and add the garlic and warm it until fragrant.
Add butter and garlic to the cream cheese and stir to blend well.
Add the cream or 1/2 and 1/2 and mix well until blended.
Add the grated cheese last and stir until well blended and smooth and warmed through.
Don't boil!!

*The key here is to make sure the cream cheese is totally melted before you add the butter and garlic.
