Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic (minced) and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the cherry tomatoes (halved) to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and begin to burst.

Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat in the creamy tomato sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it.

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.

Remove from heat and add the fresh basil (chopped). Toss gently to combine.
