CHIVE CREAM

At a breakfast meeting earlier this year we were served a breakfast casserole with a side of Chive Cream as an optional garnish. This stuff took the basic breakfast casserole over the top!! I begged the chef to share his recipe (to no avail) and have been searching ever since. This is pretty close to what I remember. Chill time is cook time.
