Notes
- While testing our honey butter recipe, we discovered people liked it a lot more with just a touch of salt. They found it much more satisfying. If using unsalted butter, add a scant ¼ teaspoon salt.
- We found that people's preferences for sweetness were all over the place. If you don't like your honey butter very sweet, start with 3 Tablespoons. For a sweeter honey butter, add up to ¼ cup more honey.
