3. Mash the butter and avocado together in a medium mixing bowl.
4. Finely seed and dice 1-2 jalapeño peppers (adjust to your spice preference).
5. Add the diced jalapeño, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon lime zest to the bowl. Mix well to combine.
6. Line a small loaf pan (approximately 5x3 inches) with plastic wrap, leaving some overhang on the sides.
7. Spoon the avocado butter mixture into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
8. Fold the plastic wrap over the top of the butter and press firmly to shape into a log.
