How to Make Spicy Cajun Butter
- Let 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter soften to room temperature.
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference). Beat with a mixer until well combined and fluffy.
- Pack the Cajun butter into small molds, ramekins, or simply roll into 1-inch balls using a melon baller or spoon.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the butter to firm up.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
