1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Ensure the butter is fully softened for easy mixing.
- In a medium bowl, combine the butter, cranberry sauce, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Mix using a hand mixer or whisk until creamy, smooth, and evenly combined.
- Taste and adjust by adding more honey for sweetness or cranberry sauce for extra tang if desired.
- Transfer the butter to a serving dish or airtight container.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
Orange zest adds a bright citrus note.
A pinch of cinnamon can deepen the flavor.
Whipped butter creates a lighter, fluffier texture.
Let the butter sit at room temperature briefly before serving for easy spreading.
