Carol V's Garlic Shrimp & Cheese Tortellini

"This is not for the faint of heart, literally, or anyone trying to diet. Years ago some friends at work asked me to come up with a creamy version of shrimp scampi and this is the result. Note: Sometimes I saute the shrimp, but if I'm in a hurry super market steamed shrimp work just fine."
