Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar light or dark
  • 1 pinch Salt optional if using salted butter
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer or whisk
  • Spatula
  • Storage Container

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients - Start by measuring out your ingredients. Having everything ready to go makes the process smooth and enjoyable.
  2. Step 2: Soften the Butter - Ensure your butter is softened. If it’s too hard, you can microwave it in short bursts (5 seconds at a time) until it’s just soft but not melted.
  3. Step 3: Combine Ingredients - In your mixing bowl, add the softened butter, brown sugar, a pinch of salt, and ground cinnamon.
  4. Step 4: Mix Until Smooth - Using your electric mixer or whisk, blend the ingredients together until you achieve a creamy and smooth texture. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Taste and Adjust - Give your Brown Sugar Cinnamon Butter a taste. Feel free to add a touch more cinnamon or sugar if you like it sweeter or spicier.
  6. Step 6: Transfer to Storage Container - Scoop the butter into your storage container. Smooth the top with a spatula for a nice finish.
  7. Step 7: Chill (Optional) - If you prefer a firmer butter, you can chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
  • You can freeze it in small portions for longer storage.
  • Let it sit at room temperature for easier spreading.
