Note! This recipe makes a lot of pesto, It will feed 8 hungry people. I
usually divide the sauce into 4 parts and freeze 3 of them. I use small 1/2
cup air tight containers and the pesto sauce seems to keep quite well. In
a blender or food processor place the olive oil and garlic, blend well on
high speed. Reduce speed, and add butter and parmesan cheese, blend till
smooth. Add the basil in small quantities, till all is added, and chopped
into small pieces (About the size of a pen head or smaller). If you are
going to freeze some of the sauce, divide and freeze it now. Boil the
spaghetti till done (dont forget to divide the spaghetti if you divided the
sauce). Drain cooked spaghetti and mix with pesto sauce, serve with garlic
bread.
