1
pound butter  
to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil  
tablespoons fresh chives, chopped  
tablespoon thyme, chopped  
tablespoon sage, chopped  
tablespoon rosemary, chopped  
Hardware:  
Dough scraper  
Standing mixer  
Parchment paper or plastic wrap  
Chop the butter into uniform chunks using the dough scraper.  
Place the oil into the food processor and add the chives. Process until the chives are finely  
chopped. Add the remaining herbs and blend until the herbs have colored the oil. Using  
the whisk attachment, whip the butter in the mixer’s work bowl at medium speed until it  
softens and lightens in color, about 5 to 7 minutes.  
Add the herb oil to the butter and beat for another 2 minutes until oil is fully incorporated.  
Remove butter from bowl and spoon onto parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll into a  
log, using the edge of a baking sheet to form a tight log. Chill for 2 hours before serving.  
Yield: 2 logs
