Recipe Ingredients

225 grams unsalted butter, softened
100 grams icing sugar
pinch of salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
50 grams walnuts, finely chopped

Methods

1. Prepare Ingredients

Make sure 225 grams of butter is soft at room temperature to make mixing easier.

For quick preparation, measure out 100 grams of icing sugar, 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (if using), and 50 grams of chopped walnuts.

2. Mix Butter and Sugar

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with the icing sugar until creamy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer.

3. Incorporate Flavours

Gradually add the ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt to the butter and continue beating until well combined and smooth.

Add honey and vanilla extract (if desired) to the mixture and beat until incorporated for extra sweetness and flavour.

4. Add Walnuts

Fold the finely chopped walnuts into the butter mixture until evenly distributed, adding a delicious crunch and nutty flavour to the spread.

5. Serve and Enjoy

Transfer the Cinnamon Bliss Butter to a serving dish and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon, extra chopped walnuts, or a drizzle of honey.

Serve immediately with warm rolls, breadsticks, or your favourite baked goods for a delicious treat.
