Instructions

In a small mixing bowl, add softened butter (1/2 cup), mustard (2 teaspoons), horseradish sauce (2 teaspoons), and lemon juice (1 teaspoon). Using a hand-held electric mixer, set on medium speed, beat mixture until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients and stir until everything is well incorporated.

To Make A Dip

Place ingredients in a microwave-safe dish and microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until completely melted.

To Make A Compound Butter

Place the mixture in a line on an 8-inch-long piece of wax paper. Roll up the paper, forming a log or cylinder, pressing and shaping as you go, then twist the ends. Refrigerate until firm.
Cut slices of compound butter and place on cooked steak to finish or serve as a dipping accompaniment to cooked steak.
