Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/4 cup honey

2-3 teaspoons adobo sauce (from canned chipotles in adobo)

1-2 canned chipotle peppers, finely minced (adjust based on spice preference)

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Butter: In a medium mixing bowl, place the softened unsalted butter. It should be at room temperature for easy mixing.

    Add the Honey: Pour in the honey and mix using a hand mixer or spatula until the mixture is well combined and smooth.

      Incorporate the Chipotle: Add the adobo sauce, minced chipotle peppers, smoked paprika, and salt to the honey butter mixture. If you want a hint of sweetness beyond the honey, add the vanilla extract as well.

        Mix Thoroughly: Blend everything together until it reaches a creamy and even consistency. Taste and adjust salt or spice as per your liking.

          Storing: Transfer the smoky chipotle honey butter to a serving dish or an airtight container. You can chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes so it firms up slightly.
