Ingredients

• 1 lb fettuccine noodles

Step 1

Cook the pasta according to package directions.
In a saucepan or skillet over low heat, warm the butter and cream. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Place half the Parmesan into a large serving bowl. Pour the warm butter/cream mixture over top.
Drain the pasta and immediately pour it into the bowl. (Reserve a cup or two of pasta water.) Toss a couple of times and then sprinkle in the other half of the Parmesan. Toss to combine, thinning with pasta water if necessary.
