Fettucine Alfredo

As you know I am a huge fan of Disney!  One of their former restaurants, Alfredo's, had the best fettucine alfredo I have ever tasted!  It was actually the original fettucine alfredo and it differs from its competition because it actually contains no cream!  This recipe is so simple and absolutely delicious!

Ingredients:
2 sticks of butter
1 lb fettucine
2 cups parmesan cheese
salt

Directions:
Bring water to a boil and salt.  Then cook your pasta for about 10 minutes.  Right before draining reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. 

In a small bowl mix together the 2 sticks of softened butter and parmesan cheese.  I used a fork to mash the two together. 

Once the pasta is done cooking and the water has been reserved in a separate bowl, drain the pasta.  Then add the butter and cheese mixture in the bottom of the pot and melt for a minute or two.  Then add the pasta back into the pot with the butter and cheese.  Toss together with tongs until everything is melted.  Slowly add a few tablespoons of the water until a sauce forms.  You may end up using the whole half a cup, but don't pour it all in at once.  Serve immediately and enjoy!
