Ingredients

Method

In small skillet, melt 2 tsp butter over medium heat. Cook 3 cloves garlic,
minced; add 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, stirring, until garlic is softened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to bowl; let cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes. 

Mash in 1/3 cup butter, softened, and 1 tsp hot pepper sauce.

Make-ahead: Wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days or overwrap in foil and freeze for up to 2 months.

To serve, gently melt butter mixture and use as dip for Boiled Fresh Lobsters. Makes about 1/3 cup.
