Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Before you begin, be sure to take the butter out and let it come to room temperature on the counter for ~30 minutes.
  2. Make each butter. For the basil butter, combine all ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  3. For the cinnamon sugar butter, combine all ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  4. For the roasted garlic in the garlic herb butter: To make the roasted garlic, cut ¼ inch off from the top of the garlic. Drizzle olive oil all around it. Wrap in foil and bake at 400°F for ~45 minutes. For the butter, combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl until smooth, mashing the garlic pieces in the butter.
  5. Optional but pretty: top the butter with fried garlic pieces. See recipe notes below for how to make them.
  6. For the garlic herb butter, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl until smooth, mashing the garlic pieces in the butter. Optional but pretty: top the butter with fried garlic pieces. 
  7. For the sun dried tomato butter, combine all ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  8. Assemble: using a large board of choice, arrange each butter on a quadrant of the board.
  9. Then make it pretty! Decorate with edible flowers, more zest, fresh herbs, sprinkling of cinnamon or other spices, chopped nuts, flaky sea salt, etc. and serve with bread, crackers, or vegetables.  

Notes

  • I used this recipe for making fried garlic. But I only sliced about 5-7 cloves, not 20 cloves. 
  • Storage: with fresh herbs, it will last about a week. The cinnamon and sugar butter will last much longer.
