Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients and tools. This will make the process smooth and enjoyable.

- Give your butter a little taste! Adjust the brown sugar or cinnamon if you want it sweeter or spicier.
- Using a spatula, transfer your Brown Sugar Cinnamon Butter into your storage container. Smooth out the top for a nice finish.
Notes
- Use fresh ground cinnamon for the best flavor.
- Try adding nutmeg or vanilla extract for a unique twist.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- If hardened in the fridge, let it sit at room temperature before spreading.
- Vegan butter substitutes work well for a dairy-free version.
