Patrick'S Seasoned Butter (For Corn-On-The-Cob)

• 1 lb salted butter
• 1 teaspoon chili powder (chipotle-type)
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 tablespoon Italian salad dressing mix, powder (from a packet)
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon mesquite powder (Durkee smokey)

1. Melt the pound of butter in a large glass bowl, using the "defrost" mode of the microwave. Before it is totally melted, remove it from the microwave.
2. Pour in the seasonings and stir well with a fork.
3. Using a bowl that is wider at the top than at the bottom, (for a mold) spray the bowl with Pam and pour in the seasoned butter.
4. Place in freezer until solid again. Unmold when solid, wrap in aluminum foil and store in refrigerator until needed for use.
5. Chipotle chili powder is smokey and can be ordered online if you can't find it locally.
