Ingredients

½ cup butter
1 ½ cup heavy cream
1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning

Instructions

In a saucepan over medium high heat, melt the butter.
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to brown the garlic.
Pour in the heavy cream and Cajun seasoning and stir continuously. Let it come to a gentle simmer, but do not let it boil.
Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens and the cheese is fully melted and incorporated into the cream. This will take about 3-5 minutes.
Adjust the seasoning to your desired level of spiciness. Keep in mind that Cajun seasoning blends can vary in heat, so start with a small amount and add more if needed.
Allow the sauce to simmer for a few more minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired thickness. If it becomes too thick, you can thin it out with a bit more heavy cream.
