Creamy Pesto Pasta Sauce

I love pesto..... oh how I love it. I buy it in bulk at Sam's and put it on everything from sandwiches to pasta sauce. As soon as my big jar from Sam's is gone I am going to make some. I'll post that when I do. In the meantime, enjoy a little pesto pasta. This is basically just your average ordinary alfredo sauce with pesto in it. A good way to change up an old favorite.

1 cube butter (yes I said cube)

1 pint cream

8 oz shredded parmesan cheese and for the love of all that's holy, not that nasty grated stuff!

1 clove of garlic VERY finely chopped. I would even approve to use of a garlic press for this sauce. I hate garlic presses.

6 Tbsp cream cheese

1/4 cup prepared pesto of choice

melt your butter and add garlic. Let the garlic saute just until it is fragrant. Add cream and when it is warm add the cream cheese and the parmesan. cook on low-ish heat until it is smooth. It may take a little bit. Be patient. After the sauce is smooth, add the prepared pesto stir well and serve over your favorite pasta with chicken (prepared however you prefer, baked if it makes you feel better about ingesting so many calories in the sauce, it will still require an extra mile on the treadmill, but hey) Note that it will thicken more as you take it off the heat. I could eat it every day. I better not.
