Garlic Herb Compound Butter

A garlic herb compound butter with cilantro, rosemary, and just a hint of spice.

I'm always excited to see who I'm assigned for the Surprise Recipe Swap. I enjoy looking through a new (to me) blog, and selecting something I want to make. This month, I chose this recipe from Jenmi Jenmi, a blog written by two Jennifers. I opted to use butter instead of oil since I wanted to leave myself more options down the line. For example, I thought about making Hasselback Potatoes and using this Garlic Herb Compound Butter. For the same reason, I used garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. I figured If I wanted to use this butter in liquid form, I could simply melt it. :)

How will you use your compound butter?
