Instructions

    1.
    In a small saucepan, combine the butter and cream cheese. Set the saucepan over low heat, stirring continuously until both ingredients melt together completely smoothly. Use a soft, spreadable cream cheese to ensure easy melting.
    2.
    Pour in the heavy cream and beef stock to the saucepan. Stir well to thoroughly combine with the melted cream cheese and butter. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Beef stock is recommended for its rich flavor, complementing steak perfectly, but chicken or vegetable stock can be used if preferred. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the recipe's macros accordingly depending on the seasoning strength of the chosen stock.
    3.
    Place the whole peppercorns in a mixing bowl or mortar. Gently crush them using the base of a rolling pin or a pestle, breaking them down slightly. Adjust the amount of peppercorns to suit your personal taste preferences, adjusting macros accordingly. Add the crushed peppercorns to the simmering sauce and stir well. Continue to simmer the sauce gently until it thickens and is heated through, approximately 2-3 minutes. For a thinner sauce, add extra stock as desired.
