This composed butter goes exceptionally well with steak, chops and fish. It can also be used as a spread on crackers served with preserved figs.

¼ cup butter, softened
¼ cup blue cheese, crumbled
1Tbs lemon juice
3 Tbs finely chopped chives
a pinch of pepper
a dash of Worcester sauce
1 tsp brandy

Blend all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, cover and store in refrigerator to allow the flavours to develop. Soften at room temperature before serving.
