- 1 stick salted butter softened to room temp

NOTE: start with room temperature butter so your compound butter will blend better. If your butter is chilled when you’re ready to start, you can microwave it for a few seconds on partial power – just be sure not to melt it!
Finely chop the herbs then transfer all the ingredients in a medium size bowl. Mix until it’s combined well then spoon into 4 ounce size canning jars.
To make a log you'll slice into rounds, place the compound butter on a large piece of plastic wrap then roll into a cylinder shape. Twist the ends to seal the butter and refrigerate until it’s solid then slice it into rounds when you’re ready to use.
