Blue Cheese Butter


I've been hearing for years about how I should try a blue cheese butter with my steaks. However I've never been a fan of blue cheese until the past few years. I asked at the Harmon's cheese bar about a good cheese to use for steaks, since they had given me a few other great cheese selections, and they suggested a Stilton blue cheese. At first I thought I was just going to crumble the blue cheese over a cooked steak but again it was suggested I try it in a butter for the steaks. I have to say I really liked the taste of this butter with the steak. The blue cheese had just a hint of its flavor yet it flavored the steak well. I think I'll have to make this anytime I plan on serving steak. I like it much more than steak sauce now. I found the recipe here.

1/4 cup butter, softened
2 tbsp. crumbled blue cheese
1/2 tsp. coarse ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
Stir together butter, blue cheese, coarse pepper and garlic in a small bowl; cover and set aside until ready to serve.
