- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground

Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.

Once it starts to simmer, reduce the heat back to low, and add the crumbled blue cheese to the saucepan.

Stir continually until the blue cheese has completely melted and the sauce is smooth. This should take around 3-5 minutes.
Step 6
Season the sauce with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 7
If using, stir in the finely chopped chives just before serving for added color and flavor.
