Homemade Garlic Butter
I made this garlic herb butter for the hasselback garlic cheesy bread recipe. While you can get garlic herb butter from the store, it’s so much easier to make it at home.
The recipe practically takes 10 minutes and you have your homemade garlic herb butter.
As I mentioned, I made it for the garlic cheesy bread, but ended up using it for many more dishes, such as garlic noodles, brushing it on grilled shrimp, or just plain on my morning toast.
It adds a great garlicky and herb flavor and make everything so much better and palatable.
Garlic Butter…endless Possibilities!
The best thing is that garlic butter will keep forever in the fridge, just like your regular butter.
Check out the recipe on how to make this garlic butter, it’s super easy.
Now that I have made it from scratch, I can’t wait to try out different variations of flavored butter…
I get excited thinking of the endless possibilities!

Thank you Bee for yr speedy reply. I really appreciate it. May God Bless You. Bye
Hi Bee, 4 tiny pips of garlic to 226gm butters sounds too little. 4 bulbs of garlic sounds too much. Which is correct? Tku
4 big pips…and minced very fine. You can use a few more, up to you…either way is fine.
i’ve made this recipe and spread it on a cracker. it was just fantastic. so good that my officemates keep asking me how did it do it. i’ve just put a little bit of sugar. the saltiness and the sweetnes just blend it right…
Dona – great idea thanks for trying my garlic herb butter recipe. :)
Have you tried this with homemade butter? I’m wondering if the turnout will be the same.
I haven’t tried homemade butter.
Thankyou sound delicious
This looks good…but what are the directions? I’m new to cooking, lol. How much “herb”, butter, & garlic? Do you melt the butter? Do you use room temp butter? The garlic-whole, minced, small chunks, how much, raw, cooked, ect? Also is there a spice called “herb” or does herb have a different name?
I’m so ready to make this , just need details :)

is this measurement regarding fresh or dried parsley? so pretty your butter!!
Fresh. Thanks for your sweet comment.
Garlic Herb Butter tastes fantastic when you put a bit of it on a Steak. Ribeye or New York are the best. You just simply add a good slice on the steak as you serve in on the plate.
It is also great for a topping for a Baked Potato.
Thanks for your suggestion Connie. :)
Where is the recipe?
Sounds like a good recipe for a flavoured butter that would have multiple uses. Will definitely try it. How many grams is a stick of butter?
1 stick of butter = 1/4 pound
1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup
1 stick of butter = 8 tablespoons
1 stick of butter = 4 ounces
1 stick of butter = 113 grams
That would taste amazing in my potatoes.
Oooh yes, good idea.
