How to Make Best Ever Garlic Butter

  1. Mince 4 large cloves of garlic using a food processor.
  2. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter to the food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the food processor.
  4. Pulse until just combined. Do not over-process.
  5. For a variation, substitute Romano cheese for the Parmesan for a sharper, more intense flavor.
  6. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat instead of paprika (optional).
