World's Best Alfredo

We absolutely love Italian food. In fact, we eat it at least once a week. We had the habit of going out to Olive Garden or Carrabba's and spending a fortune on pasta. So I had to figure out a way to make delicious pasta at home, that wouldn't cost a ton or take hours to make.
Well, I came up with this AMAZING alfredo sauce recipe. Believe me when I say, it's the world's best. I've been asked by so many people for this recipe and it's often requested by friends and family.
What you'll need:
  • 3 Tbs butter
  • 1/2 c Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 8 oz of heavy cream
  • 1 pinch of nutmeg
  • salt to taste
