Add the Herbs and Seasonings: Stir in the chopped parsley, chives, smoked paprika, hot sauce (if using), cayenne pepper (if using), and salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning to your liking.
Chill (Optional): You can serve the cowboy butter immediately, but if you prefer a firmer consistency or want the flavors to meld, refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour.
Serve: Spoon the cowboy butter onto grilled meats, seafood, or veggies. It also works great as a dipping sauce or topping.
