fettFettuccini Alfredo

Makes 6 servings

12 ounces uncooked fettuccini pasta
3/4 cup butter
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 1/4 cups grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley, if desired
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, if desired

1. Cook fettuccini to desired doneness as directed on package. Drain; cover to keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, melt butter in 6-quart Dutch oven over low heat. Stir in cream and pepper. Cook about 5 minutes or until mixture thickens slightly, stirring frequently.
3. Stir in Parmesan cheese; cook over low heat just until cheese is melted, stirring constantly. Immediately stir in cooked fettuccini; toss to coat with sauce. Stir in parsley and nutmeg. If sauce begins to separate, stir in a little more cream and cook over low heat until smooth.
