And just like that Thanksgiving is over and Christmas is just around the corner! I am excited and ready for Christmas, our house is decorated, our cards are sent out, gifts for the grandkids have been sent and all
of my shopping is done. Time to sit back and enjoy the Holiday. With that being said I won’t have many posts between now and the new year. I’ll sneak in when I can with some holiday ideas.
Today’s post is all about butter! My Thanksgiving and Christmas menu typically stays the same as they are recipes we absolutely love but every now and then I will change or add a side dish or an appetizer but this year I added this cranberry Honey Butter from Taste of Home. This butter will be added to our Holiday menu every year. It’s sweet, creamy and I love the cranberry in it. This really ads so much flavor to your dinner rolls! I will make it with dried cherries at Christmas.
This would also make a terrific Hostess gift. Package in small decorative containers and give it along with some baked scones or muffins!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup of butter, softened
1/3 cup of chopped dried cranberries or cherry’s
1/4 cup of honey
2 teaspoons orange zest
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl beat beat all of the ingredients until blended. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy!
