Brandy Butter

  • Serves

    makes 1 1/2 Cups

This rich, booze-laced butter goes with Christmas Pudding and can be sweetened with confectioners' or brown sugar and flavored with whiskey, rum, or vanilla extract. It can be refrigerated, so that its soft, pillowy texture hardens (which explains why it's also known as hard sauce).

Ingredients

  • 12 tbsp. room-temperature unsalted butter
  • 34 cup sugar
  • 4 tbsp. brandy

Instructions

Step 2

Add brandy and beat until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve at room temperature, or refrigerate until hard, then serve.
