Ingredients
Scale
Dairy and Sweeteners:
- 1 cup (226 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- ¼ cup (84 grams) honey
- ¼ cup (30 grams) powdered sugar
Flavoring Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare a clean mixing bowl and set up an electric mixer to whip the butter into a cloud-like consistency, ensuring it becomes pale and airy with gentle peaks forming.
- Gently fold in the golden honey, powdered sugar, aromatic ground cinnamon, and pure vanilla extract, blending the ingredients until they create a harmonious, velvety spread with no visible lumps.
- Conduct a flavor assessment by sampling a small portion, carefully calibrating the sweetness and spice profile to align with your personal taste preferences, adding more honey or cinnamon if desired.
- Carefully transfer the luxurious butter mixture into a pristine glass jar or sealed container, smoothing the top with a spatula to create an elegant finish.
- Place the prepared butter in the refrigerator to allow flavors to meld, ensuring optimal preservation. When ready to serve, remove from cold storage and let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften and enhance its spreadable texture.
Notes
- Ensure butter is truly softened at room temperature for the smoothest, creamiest texture without lumps.
- Use fresh, high-quality ground cinnamon for the most robust and aromatic flavor profile.
- Experiment with different honey varieties like wildflower or clover to create unique taste variations.
- For a healthier version, swap powdered sugar with maple syrup or use a sugar-free alternative like stevia.
