ALFREDO TORTELLINI BAKE

Steps:

• Take the cream cheese out of the fridge at least 30 minutes prior to starting the recipe, or microwave it for 20-30 seconds. It needs to be very soft. Preheat your oven to 375F and move the rack to the top third of the oven.
• Boil water for the tortellini, and cook it one minute less than package directions indicate. Drain and add it to a 9x13 casserole dish.
• Meanwhile, add the butter to a skillet over medium heat. Once it's melted, add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add in the cream cheese and heavy cream. Stir/whisk constantly until the cheese has melted in and it's thickened up a bit (this shouldn't take more than 4-5 minutes). Don't let the sauce get too thick because it'll continue to thicken up/reduce in the oven. If it becomes a bit too thick, add in a splash more cream.
• Stir half the parmesan cheese into the sauce and then take the skillet off the heat. I add a bit of salt & pepper to the sauce.
• Pour the sauce over the tortellini and then toss it and spread it out in an even layer.
• Top the tortellini with the rest of the parmesan and the mozzarella.
• Bake, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes until the cheese has melted, and then broil it for a few minutes to brown the cheese a bit (watch it carefully).

Over medium heat, stir constantly while bringing mixture to a boil. While tortellini and Alfredo sauce are cooking, pour hot water over the sun-dried tomatoes and rehydrate them until soft (about the same time as the tortellini takes to cook). When cooked, drain tortellini and add to Alfredo sauce. Add sun-dried tomatoes and prosciutto, toss and sprinkle with Parmesan.
