Soft, pillowy gnocchi tossed in a rich garlic-Parmesan cream sauce and finished with truffle oil—this comforting dish is elegant, quick, and absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

1 pound potato gnocchi

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon truffle oil

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Cook the Gnocchi:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface (about 2–3 minutes). Drain and set aside.

Make the Sauce:
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

Simmer the Cream:
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and cook for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Combine and Flavor:
Add the drained gnocchi to the sauce and toss gently to coat. Drizzle with truffle oil.

Season and Garnish:
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Top with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Truffle Oil Tip: Use high-quality truffle oil for maximum flavor with minimal effort.

Cheese Swap: Try Pecorino Romano for a saltier, sharper finish.

Add Protein: Add sautéed mushrooms, grilled chicken, or crispy pancetta to turn this into a heartier main.

Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
