  3. In a large saucepan, melt butter into cream over low heat.
  4. Add white pepper, salt, pepper and garlic salt.
  5. Stir in cheese over medium heat until melted; this will thicken the sauce.

Notes:
This is a recipe that you have to watch closely and stir constantly.
The amount of white pepper used will control the heat of the dish.
Many different additions can be made to this dish to make it an entirely different flavored dish. Bacon bits or Canadian Bacon for something similar to a Fettuccine Carbonara, Steamed Vegetables for something like a Fettuccine Primavera. Chicken, Shrimp, Spicy Sausage, Mushrooms and many other things can entirely change the flavor profile of this dish.
Leftovers can be reheated in a pan with the addition of a small amount of milk in order to revive the sauce.
