Cook the pasta in boiling salted water for about 8 minutes. In the meantime, roast 10 g pine nuts in a pan without fat until golden brown. Peel garlic. Wash the basil, dab dry and pluck the leaves from the stalks. Grind garlic, remaining pine nuts, basil and cheese finely in the universal chopper.
Add oil and cream and puree everything. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the pasta onto a sieve, quench, drain briefly and arrange on four plates. Spread the pesto on top and sprinkle with pepper and roasted pine nuts. Serve garnished with basil as desired
