Directions
Boil water in a large pot and cook pasta per instructions on the box. Once cooked al dente, drain completely and set aside. In a large non-stick pan melt 2 sticks of butter. Add garlic and onions and sauté until onions become translucent. Sift 4 teaspoons of baking flour to create a roux by stirring until all of the flour and butter are combined. Add white wine slowly and stir to break up the roux. Allow to cook for about 2 minutes, or until the smell of alcohol is not as strong. Add chicken broth and whipping cream and stir together, making sure there are no lumps. Add the cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Combine the pasta and the cream sauce together, add parsley, and serve hot, with a little more dusting of parmesan cheese.
