Blue Cheese Butter is a rich and flavorful compound butter made with creamy butter, crumbled blue cheese, fresh herbs, and garlic. Slice it over a hot steak and let it melt, or use it to add extra flavor to vegetables and bread.

This compound butter is one of my favorite ways to finish a steak, especially my Filet Mignon. You can make it ahead of time, keep it chilled, and slice off a piece whenever you need it.
