Make the Alfredo Sauce
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Combine Everything
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water to reach desired consistency.
