I cold smoke cheese every year for my “man” gifts with friends. Last few years I would cold smoke bars of chocolate and then let it rest for a few weeks in butcher paper in the fridge. Then crush it up and make chocolate chip cookies with it. While good, the smoke flavor was inconsistent.

This year I decided to smoke sticks of butter and make cookies with that. I froze sticks of butter and then cold smoked them for 2 hours with apple wood. They just spent a week resting in butcher paper in the fridge. I vacuum sealed them last night and will use the butter to make cookies.
