Ingredients

Directions

  1. Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, confectioners sugar, and ground cinnamon.
  3. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and fully combined.
  4. Transfer the cinnamon butter to an airtight container.
  5. Refrigerate until ready to use. Allow to soften slightly before spreading on warm toast or biscuits.

Note

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For a firmer consistency, keep it chilled; for easier spreading, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Substitute half the butter with cream cheese for a cream cheese cinnamon butter variation.

Add a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of vanilla extract for extra depth of flavor.

Make sure to use confectioners (powdered) sugar, not granulated, to avoid a gritty texture.
