Prep Time15 minutes

Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup salted butter at room temperature
  • 3.5 oz fresh soft goat cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives

Instructions

  • Start by measuring out your ingredients. Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easy mixing. Chop the chives finely so they can be evenly distributed in the butter.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the room temperature salted butter and the fresh soft goat cheese. Use a fork or a hand mixer to blend them together until they are fully combined and smooth. This step is crucial for achieving that creamy texture.
  • Once the butter and cheese are well mixed, fold in the chopped chives gently. Make sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  • Give your Goats Cheese and Chive Butter a taste. If you feel it needs more flavor, you can add a pinch of salt or more chives according to your preference.
  • Transfer the mixture to your storage container. You can shape it into a log using plastic wrap if you prefer a more elegant presentation. This also makes it easier to slice later.
  • Refrigerate your Goats Cheese and Chive Butter for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld and the butter to firm up.
