Prepare the Alfredo Sauce
In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Add Cream
Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to cook for about 2-3 minutes to thicken.
