Blender Hollandaise

By

This recipe is originally from "The Joy of Cooking". It's much faster and more foolproof than handmade Hollandaise, but paler and a little less flavorful. The recipe relies on the entire quantity of heated butter to cook the egg yolks so don't try to make a smaller batch. Food.com #75350
