Instructions
- 1. Melt butter or heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- 2. Pour in dry pasta, milk, and enough water to just barely cover the pasta. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle boil.
- 3. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until pasta is al dente and most liquid has reduced to a creamy sauce.
- 4. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir until cheese melts and sauce thickens. For extra creaminess, stir in cream cheese or sour cream.
- 5. Garnish with chopped parsley or basil and serve immediately.
