Gorgonzola Cream Sauce Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Italian Recipes. (Gorgonzola Cream Sauce Recipe). Autumn is the season for rich, creamy sauces, and I'm pretty sure you're going to be shocked at just how easy this one is. When your cream is reduced, your sauce is practically done. I like serving this with a stuffed pasta like tortellini or ravioli, topped with diced apple and crunchy toasted walnuts.
