    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ziti or spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

    Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.

    Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. If desired, stir in chopped parsley for added flavor.

  5. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce
