Alfredo Sauce

This one is for my mother. She really likes Alfredo sauce. This is a recipe I found on allrecipes.com, one of the websites I like to use when searching for new recipes for class. I am not so much a fan of this sauce, but it is a relatively cheap (food is expensive and I want to do as many recipes as possible, but have to find ways to save money, hence, the kids use margarine and milk not cream) and easy sauce for the class to make (the kids only do 1/2 of this recipe).

½ cup butter
8 oz. cream cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
2 cup milk
¾ cup Parmesan Cheese
Dash of black pepper

Melt butter in sauce pan over medium heat. Add cream cheese and parmesan cheese
and stir with wire whisk until smooth. Add milk, a little at a time, whisking to smooth
out the lumps. Stir in garlic powder and pepper. Remove from heat when sauce reaches
Desired consistency. Sauce will thicken rapidly, toss with hot pasta to serve.

It also works well for white sauce pizzas!
