Add broccoli florets to the pot and stir to combine. Cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until broccoli is tender and pasta is cooked through.
Stir in heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until sauce is heated through and cheese is melted. Serve hot and enjoy!
