1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup heavy cream
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
About 1 ounce white truffle

Steps:

Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water. Drain.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan big enough to hold the cooked pasta easily, melt the butter.

Put into a serving dish and grate the truffle over the pasta or serve the truffle at the table allowing each guest to help himself. Serve additional cheese in a small bowl.
