Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add steaks to skillet and cook to desired doneness (about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare). Transfer steaks to plate and cover loosely with foil. Add rosemary to skillet, then sauce and remaining 1/4 cup broth. Boil one minute, scraping up browned bits. Season with salt and pepper; spoon sauce over steaks. Top each with cheese.
