Parmesan and Garlic Basil Butter

  • I walked by a demonstration in Costco the other day. They were sampling this Parmesan, Garlic Basil Butter. They had made grilled cheese with it. BAM! It just kicked up a preschool lunch to gourmet status. Intrigued, I walked over to the display case while still savoring the  last bite in my mouth to pick up a container. Looking at the ingredients, I decided to save my $11 and go home and make it myself with the stuff I already had at home. So, here it is. This is served best with this soup.
  • 1/2 lb unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 4 tsp. dried basil
  • 1 -1 1/2 clove garlic, finely minced or pressed
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
