Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Whiskey
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Take the unsalted butter out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 15–20 minutes to soften.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the softened butter, whiskey, brown sugar, salt, and ground black pepper.
Using a fork or a hand mixer, blend all the ingredients together until fully combined and smooth.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed. Add a bit more salt or pepper depending on your preference.
Lay a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper on a flat surface. Scoop the blended butter onto the plastic wrap, shaping it into a log.
Roll the plastic wrap tightly around the butter, twisting the ends to seal it, and place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Once the butter is firm, slice it into rounds as needed and serve with your favorite dishes. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
