  • Add the cream cheese and season with ground pepper.
  • Use a hand blender to blend until smooth.

Notes

  • Click on the US Customary link to see the measurements displayed in cups and ounces.
  • The servings can be adjusted by clicking the number next to Servings.
  • Sealing it with butter helps keep it fresh, so that's one step not to be skipped. I usually transfer the pâté to ramekins and cover them with clingfilm and then refrigerate.
