Variation: French style filling
In Step 1, replace the garlic and rosemary with 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced, and 2 teaspoons herbs de Provence, and substitute 2 tablespoons butter for the olive oil.
Melt the butter in a small frying pan over medium- low heat. Add garlic and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until garlic is golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in herbs de Provence and cook for 1 minute longer. Stir in ¼ teaspoon ground pepper and transfer mixture to a small bowl and refrigerate until cold (Butter does not need to harden).
Transfer mixture to a bowl and proceed with Step 2 of recipe.
