Whisky Butter Three Ways

Cotswold Gold Whisky Butter melting over a warm mince pie

One jar, three ways to finish Christmas.

Whisky butter is the grown up alternative to brandy butter, and one jar covers three very different moments over Christmas.

One jar · Prep 2 mins · On the Day, Leftovers

Ingredients

  • 1 jar Cotswold Gold Whisky Butter

Method

  1. Mince pies: a spoonful on each warm pie.
  2. Christmas pudding: melt a few spoonfuls over the hot pudding instead of custard.
  3. Boxing Day breakfast: spread on warm crumpets or toasted panettone.

Charlie's cheat

One jar, three puddings, and it's made with Cotswolds Distillery's signature single malt.

Make it special

Stir a spoonful into a hot chocolate or a double espresso for an after dinner treat.

Why it works

Butter carries the warmth of the whisky without the harshness, so it melts into hot puddings and pastries as a rich, sweet sauce.
