Ingredients

• 113 grams Unsalted butter
• 60 grams Blue cheese (crumbled)
• 1 clove Garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Take the unsalted butter out of the refrigerator and allow it to soften at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before starting.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter and crumbled blue cheese.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, chopped parsley, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl.

Step 4

Using a fork or a rubber spatula, mash and mix the ingredients until fully combined and smooth.

Step 5

Lay a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper flat on a clean work surface. Spoon the blue cheese butter mixture onto the center.

Step 6

Shape the butter mixture into a log by rolling it tightly in the plastic wrap or parchment paper. Twist the ends to seal.

Step 7

Place the wrapped butter log in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour or until firm.

Step 8

Once firm, slice the butter into discs as needed and place on top of hot steak just before serving to allow it to melt over the meat.

Step 9

Store any leftover blue cheese butter in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
