This isn't your average honey butter - it's a total upgrade that starts with high-quality European butter (trust us, it makes a difference). When you whip it with raw honey, something magical happens - it gets super light and fluffy while keeping that rich, natural honey sweetness. The touch of cinnamon adds just the right warmth, and if you're feeling fancy, a splash of vanilla takes it over the top.
