From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 4
 

Ingredients:

1/2 pound butter
1 large egg yolk
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoons salt
1 pound fresh fettuccine
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
 

Preparation:

Beat butter until light and fluffy. Slowly add the egg yolk and cream, beating constantly. Add grated cheese, a few tablespoons at a time, beating after each addition. In a large pan, bring approximately 8 quarts of water to boil; add salt and very gently drop in the Fettuccine. Stir with a wooden spoon for a few moments to separate the noodles, and cook for about 7 minutes, or until tender. The pasta should be al dente. Drain the fettuccine into a colander and place in a large heated serving bowl. Add the creamed butter and cheese immediately; toss very gently and season generously with salt and pepper.
