How to Make Blue Cheese Butter

Let 4 ounces of blue cheese and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter come to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, mash the softened blue cheese with a fork until creamy. Add 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh chives, 1 tablespoon of chopped walnuts (optional), and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a small, shallow dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the butter to firm up.
For steak: During the last 2-3 minutes of steak cooking, top with a generous dollop of blue cheese butter. Let the heat from the steak melt the butter slightly.
For bread: Spread the chilled blue cheese butter generously onto crusty bread, crackers, or baguette slices. Enjoy!
