When adding Parmesan cheese to a cream sauce, make sure your heat is about medium to medium-high. Use a whisk while you are grating it into the sauce. You should continue to whisk it until the cheese has melted. Parmesan cheese is a hard cheese so it needs a higher heat than soft cheeses in order to melt or it will just stick and make a clump.
