Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • 1 lime zested
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Allow butter to soften at room temperature.  
  • When soft add all ingredients to a bowl and mix (by hand or food processor) to incorporate.  
  • Lay out a piece of parchment paper and form a butter log.  Tightly roll and twist to seal.  There may be some excess lime juice that won't incorporate.  Don't worry about it, but put the log on a plate so it doesn't spill on your refrigerator.
  • Refrigerate for ~ 2 hours before using or freeze until ready to use.  Happy buttery goodness!  Beckie

Notes

  • Butters that are mixed with other ingredients are called compound butters.
