Ingredients

• 400 grams fettuccine pasta
• 150 grams unsalted butter
• 100 milliliters heavy cream
• 75 grams grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.

Step 2

In a large, deep skillet or saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it is fully liquefied and gently bubbling.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir to combine, letting the mixture warm through for 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly, until it melts into the sauce and becomes smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Drizzle in the honey and add the sea salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine all flavors into the sauce.

Step 6

Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet, using tongs to toss and coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. If necessary, add a small amount of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce to your desired consistency.

Step 7

Cook for another 1-2 minutes over low heat, allowing the pasta to absorb the sauce slightly.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your creamy, buttery, and slightly sweet Fettuccine Alla Burro Dolce.
