Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Sprinkle in the flour and whisk quickly to combine, cooking for about 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the heavy cream while continuing to whisk. Keep whisking until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese has melted completely and the sauce is creamy.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little more heavy cream to reach your desired consistency.
Serve immediately over your choice of pasta, chicken, or vegetables. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired for an added touch.
