Warm spices without the sweetness work on biscuits and rolls, mashed potatoes or green beans.

Recipe information

    Makes ½ cup

Ingredients

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

  1. Stir mix-ins into butter in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use (up to 3 days). Bring to room temperature before serving so butter is easy to spread. Or, if using molds, press butter into molds while still soft and chill until firm. Unmold just before serving.
