Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4 ounces short pasta, such as penne Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (optional) 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen broccoli florets 2 1/2 ounces cream cheese (1/3 cup) 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1/2 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano, finely grated (1/3 cup), plus more for serving
Directions
Cook pasta in a pot of generously salted boiling water 2 minutes less than per package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water and cover to keep warm. Add broccoli to pot; continue boiling until pasta is al dente and broccoli is bright green, 1 to 2 minutes more. Drain.
Return pot to medium heat; add cream cheese, butter, and 2/3 cup reserved pasta water. Cook, stirring, until mixture is smooth and simmering. Remove from heat; stir in pasta, broccoli, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Toss with more pasta water as needed until sauce clings to pasta. Serve with more Parmigiano and black pepper.
Cook’s Notes Feel free to swap in other vegetables, such as fresh or frozen cauliflower florets or peas, for the broccoli.
