Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/4 cup honey

2-3 tablespoons chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

Optional: Fresh lime juice (for a zesty twist)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Butter: Ensure the unsalted butter is at room temperature for easy mixing. This will make the process smoother and ensure a creamy consistency.

    Blend Chipotle Ingredients: In a small bowl, finely chop the chipotle peppers and mix them with the adobo sauce until uniform. Adjust the amount of chipotle according to your preferred heat level.

      Combine Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened butter, honey, blended chipotle mixture, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. If using, squeeze in a teaspoon of fresh lime juice for added brightness.

        Mix Until Smooth: Using a hand mixer or a spatula, blend all the ingredients together until well combined and creamy. Ensure there are no lumps. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.

          Chill: Transfer the mixture to a jar or bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up and allow the flavors to meld together.

            Serve: Spread this flavorful concoction on freshly baked bread, muffins, pancakes, or use it as a glaze for grilled meats. The possibilities are endless!

              Store: Keep any leftover smoky chipotle honey butter in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
