Penne With a Sage Cream Sauce image

I got this recipe from the "Shut up and Mangia" website. The author writes: "This recipe is my absolute favorite. I apologize, but I love cream sauce recipes. I know I'm getting up there and should slow down a bit but I can't seem to help myself especially when it comes to this recipe. Enjoy!" Feel free to add sautéed shrimp, chicken or broccoli to this sauce.Serves 4 people.
