Chop your chosen ingredient (its up to you how much you use it depends on how dominant a flavour you want) either finely or coarsely.

Then just scrunch the ingredient into the butter.

With a spatula scrape the mixture on to greaseproof paper roll up into a sausage shape fold the sides in and form into an even shape.

Refrigerate. This keeps in the freezer for a couple of months.
