I've been cooking for my family for years and there are two things that have eluded me...one would be Hollandaise Sauce and the other would be an easy, light...not super thick Alfredo Sauce! That is until NOW. This recipe is super easy and tastes amazing! Thank you for posting this recipe!! - 3/17/13
