Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package uncooked pappardelle pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 (12 ounce) package Hillshire Farm Rope Smoked Sausage, cut into 1/2" coins
- 1 (8 ounce) package sliced cremini mushrooms

Directions
Step 1
Cook pasta according to package directions; drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large high-sided skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 6 minutes. Remove to a plate; carefully wipe the skillet clean as it may be hot.
Step 3
Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat; cook garlic in hot butter, stirring occasionally, until garlic just begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add half-and-half and cream cheese; bring to a simmer, whisking constantly until smooth.
Step 4
Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add pasta and sausage mixture; toss to coat. Thin sauce with reserved pasta water if necessary.
