WORLD'S BEST FETTUCINE ALFREDO

Cindy Baldwin, Mahon Baldwin, Recipe #5

3 T butter (not margarine)
1 T flour
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. garlic powder
1/2 t. coarsely cracked black pepper (I used regular pepper..)
dash of pepper
2 oz cream cheese
1 c. whole milk
1/3 c. fresh grated Parmesan
8 oz. Linguine or Fettuccine Noodles

In a heavy saucepan, melt butter.
Blend in flour, salt, dash of pepper and garlic powder.
Add the milk all at once.

Cook over medium heat, stirring continually.
Cook until mixture is thinkened and bubbly. Cook stirring constantly for 2 more minutes. Add coarse pepper, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese.

Remove from heat and stir constantly, until the cheeses melt. (An additional 1/4 c. milk may be added if needed.) Add sauce to prepared noodles and serve.

(I usually double this recipe and it feeds two adults for dinner and lunch the next day.)
