Alfredo Sauce

This is by far and away the best alfredo sauce I've eaten.  Beyond good!  

1/2 c butter
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
2 c heavy whipping cream, room temperature or slightly warmed
1/4 t white pepper 
1/2 c shredded parmesan cheese
3/4 c shredded mozzarella cheese

Melt butter over med/low heat.  Mix together garlic, cream, and pepper...add to butter and stir often while bringing it slowly to simmer.  Add parmesan cheese, stir or whisk until melted and smooth.  Stir frequently and simmer 8 - 10 minutes until sauce is thickened and smooth.  When sauce has thickened, add mozzarella cheese and stir quickly until smooth.  Serve immediately over pasta.  

**We add grilled chicken cut into thin strips and ate it over spinach linguine --- everything together was unbeatable.  Delicious!
