Pesto Cream Sauce


By Our Family Treat (Visit website)





We love pesto in our family. The kids even love it. There is nothing better then a creamy pesto sauce...and it goes perfect with gnocci (which we will be posting the recipe for that on Thursday). It also works with any other pasta as well...and it is super easy! 




Start by making the regular pesto sauce.


2 cups basil
2 cups Parmesan cheese
1 medium garlic clove
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
1 1/2 -2 cups of olive oil


Mix all the dry ingredients in a food processor until finely chopped. Mix in the olive oil while blending on high speed until completely Incorporated and the consistency you like.


Then for the cream portion.
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup parmesan cheese
Pesto


Melt the butter, and then add flour. Once the roux is created, add the cream. Stir until warm. Add cheese. Once the parmesan cheese is all melted, add the pesto. Stir  and keep warm until ready to add to pasta.
