How to Make Chocolate Butter

  1. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter with a hand-held mixer until light and creamy (about 2 minutes).
  2. In a separate bowl, sift together 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Gradually add to the creamed butter, mixing until fully incorporated.
  3. Beat in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is completely smooth and fluffy.
  4. Transfer the chocolate butter to a small serving dish.
  5. If not serving immediately, cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving to soften.
  6. Enjoy! Serve with warm scones, pancakes, or your favorite baked goods.
