Blue Cheese Butter
Ingredients
- 1 cup softened unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 2/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup brandy
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon hot sauce
Instructions
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, blue cheese, parsley, brandy, garlic, onion powder, pepper, and hot sauce. With a rubber spatula, place the mixture widthwise down the middle of a 12x8 sheet of tinfoil or wax paper, leaving about an inch free at either end. Roll the foil or paper up lengthwise to create a little cylinder of butter. Seal the ends of the cylinder and freeze for at least 1 hour before using. To use butter grill, bake, or fry some chicken wings. Leave them plain or toss them with some hot sauce in a bowl. Then slice a few thin slices of wing butter from the roll in your freezer and toss with the wings while they're still warm.
