Raspberry Honey Butter

The traditional accompaniments for sopapilla are honey butter or raspberry jam. Here are a couple of recipes that could be used as toppings for this dessert. (recipe posted earlier).

This recipe was inspired from  the Raspberry Honey Butter served at the Inn on Temple Square......
Raspberry Honey Butter
1 pound butter, unsalted - softened
8 oz. honey
8 oz. raspberry jam - can use seedless raspberry jam
1 t. vanilla
Whip butter until light and fluffy. Add honey, raspberry preserves, and vanilla. Continue to whip until mixed.

A girl who worked at the Lion House shares her version of this recipe.....

Raspberry Honey Butter
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. honey
1 egg yolk
1/4 t. vanilla
1/2 c. frozen raspberries
dash salt
It is EXTREAMLY IMPORTANT that you start with soft butter or you will have little clumps in your butter.
Place butter in your mixer bowl beat for 1 minute.
Pour the honey into the butter a little at a time, while the mixer is going.
Add the egg yolk, vanilla and dash of salt and beat for 1 minute.
Add the frozen raspberries and beat until the butter is a nice pink color.
Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Overnight is even better!
