Fetuccini Alfredo

I got this recipe from my friend Katie Ramsay. It is the best Alfredo recipe I have found and I have tried a few. I have learned that I really don't like the ones with cream cheese in them because they aren't true to the authentic flavor and they taste heavy to me, even though they are supposed to be lower fat...? This is probably the only recipe I have that I actually make weekly (ok, besides bread) - it is that good.

Fetuccini Alfredo
From Katie Ramsay Makes about two cups of sauce, but can easily be doubled, tripled, or quadrupled!
2 T butter
1 T flour
1/2 t garlic pepper (not salt)
1/2 c milk
1/2 pint whipping cream (can be light, regular, or heavy)
1/2 c fresh parmesan cheese

In a saucepan, melt butter. Add flour and garlic pepper. Wisk together until thoroughly combined and bubbly. Add milk and cream. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add cheese and stir til melted. Sauce will thicken as it cools slightly. Serve over fresh-cooked fetuccini.

You can add chicken, mushrooms, or anything else to this. It is hard to go wrong with this and if you don't own garlic pepper (I didn't), it is worth having it in your home, just for this recipe.
