Butter logs will remain fresh for up to one year when stored in the freezer.   Directions Begin with unsalted butter that has been softened. With the heel of your hand, press the stick of butter onto a cutting board. With a chef's knife, combine the recipe ingredients and butter together until they are completely blended. Place the blended butter on a sheet of waxed paper. Fold one edge of the waxed paper over the butter and wrap it under the butter. Smooth the butter into a log. Once the butter is shaped into a log, roll the log up in the	1

Once chilled, the butter can be sliced into attractive disks. If using at a later date, wrap the butter log in foil before storing in the freezer.	2
