CREAMY GARLIC ALFREDO SAUCE IN 15 MINUTES



Creamy Garlic Alfredo Sauce in 15 Minutes image

We created this sauce with milk because most families have milk in the fridge. If you want to use heavy cream, then just eliminate the flour and replace the milk with heavy cream. Makes about 2 1/2 cups of sauce.

Rich and creamy! I have found that Parmesan cheese doesn't melt well, and often substitute Gruyere cheese.
