Cooking Instructions
  1. Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil. Add salt generously.
  2. Add 1 lb of gnocchi to the boiling water and cook according to package directions, typically 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Drain well.
  3. In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant and golden.
  4. Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream and stir constantly. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly, then gradually whisk in 0.75 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.
  5. Add the drained gnocchi to the skillet, gently tossing them to coat with the rich Alfredo sauce until everything is well combined and heated through.
  6. Plate your delicious, creamy gnocchi and enjoy every bite while it’s still warm and comforting!
