Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:
Melt the Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the olive oil and stir to combine.
Infuse the Garlic: Add the finely minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add Seasonings: Stir in the oregano, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Let the mixture cook for another minute to allow the flavors to combine.
Incorporate Cream: Reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the heavy cream or milk. Keep stirring until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Season: Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper to your liking. Let it simmer on low for an additional 2–3 minutes to thicken up a bit.
Finish and Serve: Remove from heat and pour the sauce into a serving bowl or drizzle directly over your freshly baked pizza. Garnish with chopped parsley for a touch of color and flavor.
