Guiltless Alfredo Sauce

Carlee shared this recipe site with me and wouldn't you know it a guiltless Alfredo sauce recipe caught my eye. Since I've been making a lot of pasta lately, I've also been trying some new sauce recipes and will say this one is a keeper.
*2 c. low-fat (not skim) milk
*3 oz. 1/3-less-fat cream cheese
*2 TBSP. flour
*1 tsp. salt
*1 TBSP. butter
*3 garlic cloves
*1 c. Parmesan cheese

Put the milk, cream cheese, flour and salt in a blender. Process until smooth and set aside.
In a sauce pan, melt butter on med-high heat and add garlic. Saute for 30 seconds and slowly add milk mixture to the pan. Stir constantly for 4-5 minutes until it comes to a simmer. Keep stirring and let it cook a few minutes more. When it is nice and thick, add the cheese. Stir well, then remove from heat and cover. Let stand for at least 10 minutes before serving.
