Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 box (1 lb.) fettuccine
- ⅛ tsp. salt

Instructions
- Place butter in a large heat-proof bowl. Using a wooden spoon or an electric mixer set on low speed, beat until smooth. Add the cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir until well blended; set aside.
