A delicious and creamy pasta dish featuring a rich garlic Parmesan sauce, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Cook the ziti pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente.
Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining to adjust the sauce consistency later.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown to maintain a smooth sauce.
Add the cream cheese and garlic powder to the melted butter, whisking until smooth.
Cut the cream cheese into small pieces for easier melting.
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring the mixture is smooth and lump-free.
Warm the milk slightly before adding to prevent curdling.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese and black pepper, cooking until the sauce thickens.
Remove from heat once the sauce reaches your desired consistency to prevent over-thickening.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sauce, tossing to coat evenly.
Add reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Chop the parsley finely for a more even distribution.
