Instructions
Allow the butter to soften until it can be easily stirred.
In a medium bowl, combine the butter and all the spices until well mixed. Place the mixture onto a large piece of plastic wrap, and shape into the shape of a log.
Roll the plastic wrap shut, and twist the ends tight. Transfer the butter to the refrigerator to firm, about 2-3 hours.
Once the butter firms, it's ready to use as needed. Store in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to 2 weeks.
