To Make Your Creamy Alfredo Sauce...

In a medium skillet or frying pan, melt your butter while the pan heats to a medium heat.

Add the garlic when the butter is about halfway melted, and allow to cook while the butter continues to melt.

Once the butter is completely melted, add the heavy cream and seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic powder).

Stir to combine and bring the sauce mixture to a low boil.

Once the sauce mixture has reached a low boil, reduce the heat and allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.

Slowly stir in the Parmesan and Romano cheeses, and continue to stir until the cheese is thoroughly melted and combined into a creamy, smooth alfredo sauce (about 2-3 minutes).

Remove from heat and serve over your favorite pasta immediately.
