Fresh Orange Honey Butter

I found this Sweet Orange Butter over at Real Mom Kitchen and she claimed that this butter would make an ordinary roll taste like an orange roll.  Did I hear the words Orange Roll?  

Well, it was delicious.  It was smooth and creamy with the perfect amount of sweetness and a nice strong orange flavor.  It definitely will liven up your plain old rolls!   

If orange butter isn't your thing, try my favorite Cinnamon Honey Butter instead. 

Fresh Orange Honey Butter

1/2 c. butter, room temperature
3 Tbl. powdered sugar
1 Tbl. honey
1/4 tsp. vanilla
grated zest from one orange

Beat butter until smooth.  Add the powdered sugar, honey, vanilla and orange zest and beat until light and fluffy.  Serve with your favorite rolls.

  6. Jenn,

    I found this on Pinterest, and re-pinned of course, and can't wait to try it. I love flavored butters for scones and biscuits.

    I would love to invite you to share this, and any other posts you would like to, on my Creative Thursday Link Party at www.michellestastycreations.blogspot.com. Have a great week.
