This recipe rocks!! I made some slight modifications by adding sauteed onions and chopped garlic to enhance the flavor and it turned out wonderfully!! My family loves pasta and they loved this sauce!! Thanks so much for posting this recipe... I'll definitely be making this again.

Disgusting! I have no idea how so many people rated this so highly! I decreased the cream cheese to 1/2 cup and used heavy cream instead of half and half but it still tasted SWEET and overpoweringly of cream cheese! When I think of Alfredo sauce, I think garlicy, not sweet! I couldn't eat this and add to add A LOT of spices and crushed red pepper just to make it somewhat edible for my husband. My husband said that the "restaurant" this recipe came from must have gone out of business if the rest of the food was this bad.

I used this recipe for a banquet and got asked for the recipe! I had added meatballs to it also, it was wonderful! My advice, keep the half and half, it won't seperate as easily.

We weren't too thrilled with this. Even after adding parmesan cheese, it was still sort of bland.

Wow, this sauce is so easy and delicious. I used milk instead of half and half and it still came out very creamy and smooth.

I loved it! I couldn't believe how fast it was to make and I didn't have to chop up garlic or add a ton of parmesean! I trimmed some of the fat by cutting the quantities in half and diluting the half and half with milk. The concept was there and the cream cheese tasted great in my opinion.

I made this for dinner last night...we LOVED it! Even my pickiest eaters wanted seconds. I made mine with 1% milk, since that was what I had, and it still turned out great. I cooked it in a double boiler. It takes a little longer to cook this way, but I think it made it creamier. I just started the sauce before I started the pasta and they were both done at the same time. Great recipe!!!

I have been searching for a good alfredo sauce recipe (for my boyfriend who loves fettuccine alfredo) and I have definitely found a winner with this one. The flavor was excellent! The only reservation my incredibly picky boyfriend had was that the cream cheese stayed slightly lumpy (I didn't even really notice!). I think next time I will use a double boiler to melt it down slower. I paired this meal with some homemade focaccia bread and a bottle of red wine. Overall, this recipe is nothing short of outstanding - not to mention so quick and easy!

I thought this sauce was too "cream cheesy" tasting, so I added a whole, raw clove of garlic into it for a few minutes and it turned out wonderfully! It added a great garlic flavor and cut down on the cream cheese taste. Next time I make this I will add roasted garlic and sundried tomatoes. Did I mention, that I fished out the garlic before I served the pasta?

If you want a super simple alfredo sauce this will do in a pinch this recipe is great. I had to add parmesean cheese and I wouldn't say it compares to Olive Gardens' but a lot better than the jar sauces and just as easy. Perfect for a quick & easy meal. I'll keep looking for OG's recipe though.

This recipe was delicious! It didn't turn out lumpy for me at all. I used a glass bowl and put it over a boiling pot of water to melt the butter and cream cheese together. I wisked in milk instead of half and half and I also added 3 TBLS of parmeson cheese. It was very smooth and very creamy. I also added the spices to my own taste. It turned out wonderful!!

I didn't find this recipe very good. It was very chunky and tasted very strongly of cream cheese. I added some parmisan cheese and lots of seasoning to kinda help it out.

This sauce was so good! My kids loved it. It was pretty rich, so next time I might use only 1/2 cup of cream cheese. But, we will be making this a lot!

This was absolutely wonderful!! My super picky 4 yr old loved it, and so it's a keeper. I made sure to use the double broiler, and was able to melt the cream cheese all the way - that was the key to keep it from getting lumpy. I used milk insead of half and half, and the consistancy was good. To get the flavor, you need to add the galric and lemon pepper to YOUR taste. Just keep adding a dash until the flavor suits you. I also added 3 TBS of fresh grated parmesan cheese, and my DH and I thought it added a lot. This will be someting we make consistantly!

This is wonderful! Tastes just like real alfredo sauce and is nice and creamy. I made extra and put it in the freezer--was easy to thaw and toss with pasta.

Tasted very good. Hubby liked it. But I thought that it was a bit lumpy. I'm not sure if this is the same restaurant chain recipe that I thought it was.
