Makes 1 cup
You Will Need
1 cup salted butter, at room temperature (226g)
¼ cup pure honey, plus more as needed (85g)

Pinch flaky sea salt, like Maldon salt flakes, optional
Directions
1Beat room temperature butter with a stand or electric mixer until it is whipped and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.

Adam and Joanne's Tips
- Storing: Keep in an airtight container like a glass jar in the fridge for about 1 month or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Butter: We love to use European-style butter for this like Kerrygold or Plugra.
- Softening butter: You will need softened, room-temperature butter. Leave the butter out at room temperature for about one hour. Cut the butter into small cubes and cover it with a bowl to speed up the process. If your kitchen is cold, run hot water over the bowl and briefly wipe it dry before covering the butter.
- The nutrition facts provided below are estimates. We used ¼ cup of honey in the calculations.
