While I made this originally as an accompaniment to Rosemary Corn Muffins, it would also go well with bagels or toast, mashed or baked potatoes, or really anything you pair with butter. I highly recommend using high quality European-style butter or as we say “good butter” in our house. Once you try European-style butter you’ll never go back to regular butter. Feel free to substitute your herb of choice for the chives.

Holiday Tip:  This butter keeps for a week, so make it a few days ahead of the holiday and keep it refrigerated.
