Every year I make a homemade treat to give to friends and neighbors. This year I am giving this Creamy Honey Butter and a loaf of homemade bread. I found this recipe on Pinterest.

This butter has the BEST flavor! I always have a jar in the fridge.
How to Make Creamy Honey Butter
This butter is SUPER easy to make with only four simple ingredients. Place butter in a blender. Set aside. In a saucepan, heat sugar, honey, and heavy whipping creamover medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for one minute. Remove from heat. Pour the honey mixture into the blender and blend until smooth. Pour the butter into mason jars and store in the refrigerator.
