Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, gently add the potato gnocchi and stir them to prevent sticking. Cook for 2 to 4 minutes until the gnocchi float to the surface, indicating they’re done. Carefully drain the cooked gnocchi and set them aside while you prepare the creamy sauce.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter until it’s bubbling but not browned. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
- Pour 1 cup of heavy cream into the skillet with the sautéed garlic and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes until the cream begins to thicken slightly. Gradually add 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy and rich.
- Once the sauce is ready, toss the drained potato gnocchi into the skillet, ensuring they are well-coated with the rich, creamy sauce. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of truffle oil for an extra layer of luxury, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Remove the skillet from heat and transfer your creamy gnocchi to a serving dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley for a vibrant pop of color. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
Continuously stir the sauce as it simmers to prevent burning and to guarantee even thickening. Adjust seasoning just before serving.
