Description
A cozy and creamy whipped gingerbread butter that blends warm spices for the perfect holiday spread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Bring the butter to room temperature so it’s soft but not melted. Measure the powdered sugar and spices. If your powdered sugar is lumpy, sift it for a silkier texture.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until well combined and smooth.
- Add the ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, vanilla extract, and salt to the butter-sugar mixture. Scrape the bowl sides so everything mixes evenly.
- Beat the mixture on medium speed for 2–3 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy and slightly pale. Transfer the whipped gingerbread butter to a serving dish or jar. Chill for at least 30 minutes if you want it firmer before serving.
