similar to the ready-made sauces sold with pasta

Finely chop the onion and garlic and sauté in the butter. Stir in the flour and deglaze with the milk. Then add the cream, the cheeses, and the herbs and bring to a boil. Season with broth, Fondor, and sugar. Notes: Also delicious with other cheeses. I made this sauce because I wanted to eat pasta like I did when I was a child. Back then, Aldi had a ready-made meal called Carlini with a cheese and herb sauce. These pasta dishes are no longer available at Aldi.
