Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil; add tortellini; cook until tortellini is slightly underdone, 8-10 minutes; drain well.
Meanwhile, add butter and cream to a large sauté pan; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Turn heat to medium; melt butter into cream; bring to a simmer; cook until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Place pan with butter and cream back over medium heat; add tortellini; stir, mixing tortellini into cream sauce. Add the cheese; stir gently until cheese is melted and tortellini is well coated with the sauce.
Transfer to warm pasta bowls; serve.
