Boil the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve a cup of pasta water, drain and set aside.

Sauté the Garlic: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Create the Tomato Base: Add crushed tomatoes to the skillet and simmer for 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the Cream: Lower the heat and stir in heavy cream. Cook for 2-3 minutes until creamy.

Incorporate the Fresh Basil: Add torn basil leaves to the sauce, cooking for an additional minute.

Combine Pasta and Sauce: Mix the drained pasta into the sauce. Add reserved pasta water as needed for consistency.

Serve and Garnish: Plate the pasta and top with grated parmesan and extra basil.
