Cinnamon Honey Butter

I have been trying to find cinnamon chips (they're chocolate chips, but with cinnamon instead of chocolate) to make a cinnamon bread with cinnamon honey butter, but I have yet to track the darn things down in this city. So I was flipping through some food Pins and saw that I had found a honey-beer bread... and we happened to have all the ingredients in the kitchen! Well... that will go well with cinnamon honey butter, right? Absolutely right.


Cinnamon Honey Butter

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, softened (I half-melted it...)
3 Tbsp honey (microwave it for a few seconds for easier measuring/mixing)
1 tsp cinnamon (I used Vietnamese cinnamon... stronger and sweeter!)

Equipment
bowl, whisk (microwave, optional)

Instructions
Whisk your ingredients together and stick it in the fridge.

Yields
1/2 cup of butter

Total time
5 minutes (nuke the butter in a measuring cup for a few seconds instead of leaving it out to soften, which takes ages... you need cinnamon honey butter now, dammit!)

Cleanup rating 1/5
You're going to wind up licking the bowl clean anyway, so just stick it in the dishwasher when you're done doing that.

Difficulty rating 2/10
Did you see the instructions? Put stuff in a bowl and whisk it. If you have a wrist, you can make this.

Flavor rating 9/10
YUM. The recipe I Pinned was for double this recipe (I just didn't have enough honey to do that) so I halved the butter and honey but kept the cinnamon the same (and used Vietnamese cinnamon, which is stronger - and sweeter) and I think I made a good choice. It could actually stand to be cinnamonier. Totally a word.

In action, on the honey-beer bread.
