Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup salted butter unsalted butter does not brown well
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon truffle salt
  • 1 tablespoon black truffles optional
  • Leaves of fresh thyme or other herb like parsley, optional
  • Edible Flowers optional

FOR SERVING:

  • Protein Sparing Bread
  • Tenderloin Steak
  • Cocktail Shrimp

Instructions
 

  • Heat the butter in a large sauce pot over high heat. Whisk often so the butter doesn't burn on the outside of the pan. The butter will start to bubble and froth up. Whisk often at this point. The butter will start to darken and turn brown. Remove from heat and keep whisking.
  • Add the cream cheese.
  • After a minute, slowly add the broth, truffles if using and truffle salt.
  • Use a stick blender to puree until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning and truffle taste to your liking.
  • Pour into a mason jar. Cover and store in the fridge for up to 7 days. This sauce will thicken a lot overnight.
  • Use a knife to smear the truffle butter mixture onto a clean wooden board. Top the truffle butter with a garnish with fresh herbs and edible flowers if desired.
  • Serve with slices of protein sparing bread and if you are like me, serve the butter board with a tenderloin steak!
