👨🍳 Instructions
Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat and sauté the finely diced garlic until fragrant (don’t brown it).
Pour in the cream and warm it gently.
Add the gorgonzola and Grana Padano, stirring until fully melted and silky.
Season with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
Cook the gnocchi until they float, then transfer directly into the sauce.
Simmer for 1–2 minutes to thicken and coat evenly.
Serve topped with crushed walnuts and a light drizzle of honey.
Creamy, tangy, nutty, sweet — the perfect balance in every bite.
If you love blue cheese pasta, this version will become a go-to. 🇮🇹✨
