Alfredo Sauce

This sauce is really easy to make and very tasty :)

1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup whipping (heavy) cream
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
Dash of pepper

In a 10-in skillet, heat butter and whipping cream over medium heat, stirring frequently, until butter is melted and mixture starts to bubble; reduce heat to low.  Simmer 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened; remove from heat.  Stir in cheese, salt and pepper.

*For lighter sauce decrease butter to 1/4 cup and cheese to 1/2 cup; substitute evaporated milk for the whipping cream.
