Herbed Butter Board
Bread meets spiced, herby, creamy butter in this butter board—the latest appetizer trend and so easy to prepare. No board? No problem. You could also combine the butter and toppings, shape the mixture into a log and slice it into pats for serving at the table on dinner rolls or crackers. —Joan Hallford, Fort Worth, Texas
