Christmas Cranberry Honey Butter (Print Version)
A creamy, festive spread combining butter, cranberry sauce and honey - perfect for holiday breakfasts on warm biscuits or toast.
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
02 -
1/2 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
03 -
1/4 cup honey
04 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 -
Pinch of salt
# Steps:
01 -
Ensure your unsalted butter is at room temperature. This will make it easier to blend with the other ingredients. If you're short on time, you can microwave it for about 10 seconds—just make sure it doesn't melt!
02 -
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, cranberry sauce, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
03 -
After mixing, taste your cranberry honey butter. If you prefer it sweeter, add a little more honey. For a tangier flavor, incorporate a bit more cranberry sauce.
04 -
Transfer the butter into a decorative serving dish or an airtight container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
05 -
Once chilled, your Christmas Cranberry Honey Butter is ready to serve! Spread it on warm biscuits, toast, or even pancakes for a delightful holiday treat.
