I’m not sure there is an easier to make compound butter out there that can more of a punch than this.  It has a delicious combination of sweet and salty and goes excellent on a myriad of different dishes or bread.  This is also a recipe where most people already have all of the ingredients in their cupboards and refrigerator.

How to Make It

Follow these very easy instructions for how to make this:

1. In a bowl completely whisk together the melted unsalted butter, honey, and sea salt.

2. Store in the refrigerator covered until it is ready to be used.
