Delicious! I made half with brandy and half without, and while both were great, the one with brandy was a touch better! You really couldn't taste itt<br/> but it gave a flavor boost. Thanks for sharing!

Made for Newest Zaar Tag & I'd use your recipe as proof of my point if I had to argue that something could be both wickedly good & wickedly evil. Made exactly as written (except for presentation), this wickedly good flavoured butter was perfection w/grilled steaks we served to guests at a dinner party Fri nite. I served it in sml individual sauce containers (or molds) I bought recently in the US. It's wickedly evil because it makes you forget the word moderation is a part of the English language. Thx for posting this great recipe for us. It went straight into my Best Of 2012 & Favourite Personal Treasures cookbooks. :-)
