My simple instructions for How To Make Brandy Butter will give you everything you need to make this delicious Christmas staple. It's a shame we don't make it at any other time of year as it's good enough to just eat with a spoon! But you should probably aim to serve it with mince pies or Christmas pudding instead!
Measure 125g Salted Butter and 125g Icing Sugar into the bowl of a small food processor. I've used my mini chopper as it's perfect for small quantities like this.
Blitz the butter and sugar together until it starts to come together - only around 30 seconds or so.
Use a small silicone spatula to scrape down the sides of the mixer to make sure everything is fully mixing together.
Blitz again for another 30 second or so. If you aren't confident that everything is getting fully incorporated, repeat the scraping and blitzing until you are.
Add the first tablespoon of 3 tbsp Brandy to the butter.
Blitz again until fully incorporated. Scrape down again and add the next tablespoon.
Repeat until all the brandy is mixed in. Don't be tempted to add more than a tablespoon at a time or it is liable to split.
Decant the brandy butter into a serving dish and serve!
