This cream cheese pasta sauce is my spin on Alfredo sauce. We love cream cheese, mushrooms, and garlic, so I decided to try different ways of creating this tasty dish. Serve with fettuccini and sliced crusty bread for mopping.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 portobello mushroom caps, thinly sliced
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 6 ounces grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil leaves
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- ground white pepper, to taste
- ½ cup butter
Directions
Step 1
Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in mushrooms; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
Step 2
Melt cream cheese and 1/2 cup butter in a saucepan, stirring occasionally, over medium heat. Stir in milk and Parmesan cheese until smooth.
Step 3
Add basil, garlic, and white pepper. Simmer until flavors blend, about 5 minutes. Remove garlic, then stir in mushrooms.
