How to Make It
Step 1
Leave the butter to come to room temperature so that it is soft and easy to mash. Add to a mixing bowl and mash lightly with a fork. Finely chop the olives. Add the olives to the mixing bowl along with the paprika and grated manchego cheese.
Step 2
Use a fork to mash the butter, olives, cheese, and paprika together. Be sure to distribute the flavorings evenly throughout the butter. Taste and add salt or extra seasonings if desired.
Step 3
Scoop the butter out from the bowl and onto a square of plastic wrap or baking paper. Use your hands to roughly mold the butter into a log shape. Wrap the edges of the plastic wrap/paper up tightly around the butter, securing the ends. Transfer to the fridge to set and firm for a minimum of two hours. Slice and serve as desired.
