Garlicky Compound Butter...GarLic it Product Giveaway

Garlicky Compound Butter made with GarLic it

Contest closed, October 26, 2011 at 9:00pm EST

Winners announced, October 27, 2011

As I stated in a previous post, I received two jars of the award winning GarLic it Caramelized Finishing Garlic.  I decided to create a recipe with one of the jars and host a giveaway with the remaining jar.  Since GarLic it is a finished product, I mean that you can seriously eat it directly from the jar...not that I did that...Okay, I completely did just that!  It's something that just makes a whole lotta stuff better...Try it with goat cheese, try it in salad, try it on a sandwich(especially one piled high with roast beef & provolone cheese and run under the broiler...perfection!)

I decided to mix create my own garlicky compound butter by mixing GarLic it into butter & cream cheese with red pepper flakes.  The butter is perfectly suited for warm crusty dinner rolls and will definitely be showing up on my table during the holidays.  It's also great as a spread for your next fabulous garlic bread, or for topping your next sizzling ribeye.

This is what you'll receive.  Good stuff...Bad photo

~Disclaimer~

GarLic it sent me 2 jars of their GarLic it Caramelized Finishing Garlic.  I used one to create this recipe and to offend my husband with nighttime garlic breath.  I'm using the remaining jar for this giveaway.  Although highly compensated by receiving these 2 jars, I can truly affirm that I really think GarLic it is a fabulous product!

Garlicky Compound Butter
makes about 3/4 cups

1/2 cup butter, softened
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons GarLic it Caramelized Finishing Garlic
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Mix ingredients in a bowl until completely blended.  Place butter mixture onto parchment paper and roll to create a 1x6-inch log.  Wrap in additional plastic wrap and refrigerate until hardened, about 3 hours until ready to use.  Don't want a log? Just transfer mixture to a small crock, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
