Notes
Honey butter will keep well in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, and can be frozen for 6 months.
Soften the butter before making this recipe. Take it out of the fridge around an hour before making it.
Use a stand mixer for the smoothest results. You can make it by hand, though it will require a few extra minutes and some stong arms!
