Vanilla Honey Butter

There's something perfect about a couple smooth scoops of vanilla ice cream after a light dinner.
An avid vanilla-fan, I was ignorant to the ways of Nielsen Massey Vanillas until I discovered their cookbook, A Century of Flavor, that Favorite Recipes Press helped produce. Apparently, this company has been creating amazing, really pure and intense vanilla flavors since 1907.
They released this cookbook to celebrate their centennial, and every single recipe sound amazing.
The Fresh Basil-Tomato Soup with Vanilla calls for their Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract.
The Creamy Vanilla Sweet Potatoes calls for their Tahitian Pure Vanilla Extract; Salmon with Vanilla Balsamic Marinade.
There is even a Delicious Vanilla Honey Butter. Holy cow.

Delicious Vanilla Honey Butter
Ingredients
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
2 tablespoons sifted confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract

Directions
1.) Combine the butter, confectioners' sugar, honey and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Beat using an electric mixer until creamy.
2.) Use on pancakes, waffles, cornbread, biscuits, muffins, popovers or scones.
OR JUST EAT STRAIGHT OFF THE SPOON BECAUSE IT'S THAT GOOD.
