5 cloves garlic

2 cups heavy cream

5 tbsp butter

4 oz cream cheese

3/4 cup Parmesan

Melt butter over medium-low heat. • Add minced garlic and sauté for 30–45 seconds, until fragrant (don’t brown it). • Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer for 2–3 minutes. • Stir in Parmesan and cream cheese a handful at a time, whisking until melted and smooth. • Season with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg or red pepper if using.
