Remove the unsalted butter from the refrigerator and allow it to soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes to make mixing easier.
In a medium bowl, add the softened butter, orange marmalade, honey, orange zest, and a pinch of salt (if using).
Use a fork or a hand mixer to thoroughly mix all the ingredients until smooth and well combined. Ensure there are no large chunks of marmalade.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding another teaspoon of honey if desired.
Transfer the Orange Marmalade Butter to a serving dish or a storage container.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to let the flavors meld, or serve immediately if you prefer a softer consistency.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Bring to room temperature before serving for easier spreading.
