Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add bacon to a large dry pan in a single layer; heat over medium-high heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until crispy, 6-10 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Wipe out pan. Once bacon is cool enough to handle, roughly chop into bite-size pieces.
Once water is boiling, add tortelloni to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 3-4 minutes. Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4 servings), then drain.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together marinara sauce, garlic powder, 2 TBSP milk, ¼ tsp sugar, and ¼ tsp salt (4 TBSP milk, ½ tsp sugar, and ½ tsp salt for 4 servings). (Add a pinch of chili flakes from your pantry if you like things spicy!)
Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for bacon over medium-high heat. Add marinara mixture to pan and cook until simmering and warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in drained tortelloni, cream cheese, half the bacon, and 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings). Add splashes of reserved pasta cooking water as needed until tortelloni are coated in a creamy sauce.
Divide tortelloni between bowls and top with remaining bacon.
Bacon is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
