Boil the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add your choice of pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 10-12 minutes. Don't forget to reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining!

Cook the Bacon: In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced bacon and sauté until crispy, about 5 minutes.

Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the frying pan and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.

Mix the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and egg yolks. Season this mixture with salt and pepper.

Combine Cream and Pasta: Lower the heat on the frying pan to low. Pour in the cream mixture while stirring continuously to coat the bacon.

Toss with Pasta: Gently add the cooked pasta to the creamy sauce in the frying pan. Toss until coated.

Serve and Garnish: Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan cheese.
