If you’re like me and forget the main ingredient of your homemade alfredo sauce at the store….fret no more! Today i’m sharing my homemade heavy whipping cream substitute that you can make. It is rich and creamy but do know that you cannot turn it into whipped cream like the regular stuff (there’s not enough fat.) Make sure to try our popular fettucine alfredo recipe!

The key to making this is to have both ingredients warm, otherwise the butter will curdle as soon as it hits the cold milk! Read more FAQ here.
