Favorite Fettuccine Alfredo

17 oz uncooked fettuccine or any other package of pasta (I prefer linguine)
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp salt
Dash of pepper
Chopped fresh parsley
Cook pasta as directed on package. While pasta is cooking, heat butter and cream in sauce pan over low heat, stirring constantly, until butter is melted. Stir in cheese, salt and pepper. Continue stirring until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth. Drain pasta and cover with sauce. Mix until well coated. Sprinkle with parsley.
-Notes-
I have never actually used the parsley. The sauce is rich and a little goes a long way. We also like to sprinkle chicken with garlic salt and grill on the outdoor grill (if weather permits) or the George Foreman and then serve with the pasta.
