  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)

Instructions

    In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and cayenne pepper (if using).
  2. Mix Thoroughly
    Stir until all ingredients are well combined, and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Serve or Store
    • Use immediately by tossing with wings, pasta, or drizzling over pizza.
