olive garden alfredo sauce

This stuff is just...yum...especially if you buy some OG salad dressing and a gallon of peach tea to go with it! 
  
Ingredients:

1 pint heavy cream (I used 1/2 heavy cream and 1/2 half & half to lighten it up a little)
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons cream cheese (optional as a thickening agent, OG does not use cream cheese)
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder (I used 1/2 of a teaspoon)

Preparation:

In a saucepan combine butter, heavy cream, and cream cheese. Simmer this until all is melted, and mixed well. Add the Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Simmer this for 15-20 minutes on low or until sauce is thick. You may wish to season with a little salt and pepper.
