Notes

  • For this recipe, I suggest using a high quality butter as compared to cheaper options such as margarine. This will insure a delicious and velvety finish to your dish!
  • Make sure to use room temperature butter. If your butter is not soft enough to mix easily, place it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to help soften.
  • After your butter is made, you can roll it back into a log using wax paper. This will give you little "coins" you can cut off and place over beef, vegetables, or seafood to give it a nice finish.
  • If you have time to make truffle butter ahead of time (even a few hours ahead), the flavors will really infuse and give you the best results!
  • Nutrition represents a full cup of butter.
