Note 1 – I love chives because it gives this butter a more garlicky flavor. If you don’t have fresh chives you can substitute with fresh parsley or 1 tablespoon of dried parsley.
Storage: Transfer the garlic butter to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Freezing Instructions: This butter freezes wonderfully! Place a piece of plastic wrap on the counter and dollop the butter in the center. Fold in the sides of the plastic wrap and tightly roll up into a log. Tightly wrap in a second layer of plastic wrap and place in a quart sized freezer bag. Freeze for up to 6 months.
