Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup saltine cracker crumbs (about 15 saltine crackers)
1 egg yolk
1 garlic clove, minced
1/3 cup chopped parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
1 tbsp chopped fresh chives
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/4 tsp hot sauce
36 large littleneck clams

Directions:

Beat butter at high speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add cracker crumbs, egg yolk, and garlic, beating until blended. Stir in parsley and next 5 ingredients. Place butter mixture on wax paper, and roll into a log 1 1/2-inches in diameter. Chill until firm.
Open clams, and discard top shell. Loosen meat from bottom shell, and rinse in cold water.
Cut butter into 1/8-inch-thick slices, and place 1 slice on each clam.
Broil 5 inches from heat 5 minutes or until golden brown.
NOTE: Any remaining butter can be wrapped and stored in the freezer or refrigerator. Because of the risk of salmonella in the raw yolk, butter must be cooked in a heated recipe and not used as a cold spread.
