THE INGREDIENTS
Salt, heavy whipping cream, low-moisture mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan Cheese.
This recipe calls for two cups of heavy whipping cream.
A pint is the same as two cups.
Olive oil and unsalted butter not pictured.
Allow me to explain why the mozzarella cheese package is empty. It was a very busy day for me. I shot the photo after using all of the cheese in the recipe. No time to dash to the store. Thanks in advance for understanding. 🙂
