Penne di Parma

*1 box of dried penne
*4 tbsps of butter
*4 cloves of garlic or 2-3 cloves of Elephant garlic if you can get it. That is the giant cloves of garlic next to the regular ones at the store
*3 cups of thinly sliced fresh mushrooms
*4 oz/ 1 1/2 cups of prosciutto, thinly sliced. If you can't get this where you live, any smoked ham will do
*2 cups milk
*1 cup light cream
*1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
*1/2 cup parsley

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, add the garlic and mushrooms

Cook 3 minutes or until the shrooms are tender, stirring frequently.

Add milk, ham, and cream, and boil

Reduce heat to medium, simmer uncovered until mixture is reduced by half, about 6 minutes

Remove the sauce from the heat and add some Parmesan cheese and parsley. Toss with the cooked pasta and sprinkle with the remaining ham
