What to Serve with It

This sweet butter is the perfect addition to rolls and bread. Here are some of my favorite bread recipes that will taste good with honey butter on top.    

• French Toast
• Sweet Potatoes 
• Banana Bread 
• Cheesecake Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls
• Copycat Texas Roadhouse Rolls
• Sour Cream Biscuits

Variations and Substitutions

• Use different spices. Make pumpkin spice butter with pumpkin pie spice blend.  
• Give the butter as a gift. Store it in a decorative mason jar and add some ribbon.      
• Double the recipe to make plenty of butter to add to homemade rolls. 
• Add vanilla extract. A dash of pure vanilla extract will deepen the flavors of the butter.
• Swap out the powdered sugar. If you are on a sugar-free diet, you can use a powdered sugar substitute of your preference.

Storage Instructions 

The butter will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 5-7 days. Store it in an airtight container. Do not leave it on the counter for longer than 20 minutes. 

Recipe Tips and Tricks

• For best results, let your butter soften first. Mixing cold butter is tough, but it is easy to work with room-temperature butter.   
• Use an electric mixer. A stand mixer will work, too. Mix it with a whisk, but an electric hand mixer is much easier.  
• Serve it immediately. It’s easier to spread when it’s soft and slightly warm.  

Can I Use Unsalted Butter? 

Yes, I recommend using unsalted butter in this Texas Roadhouse copycat recipe. You can add as much salt as you want to control how flavorful or salty it tastes. 

What Does It Taste Like? 

This is the best copycat recipe because it tastes identical to the butter served at the steakhouse. It is a rich and creamy butter with a hint of sweetness. The pungent cinnamon taste lingers on your tongue after each bite. 

Best Type of Honey To Use 

If at all possible, I suggest using natural, local honey. It will give you the boldest and sweetest flavors. If you are on a low-carb diet, use a sugar-free honey substitute. 

Can I Make It Sweeter? 

Adding more powdered sugar is the best way to make the compound butter taste sweeter. It’s easy to add too much honey, so I prefer to adjust the amount of powdered sugar I use. 

Can I Make It Taste Less Sweeter? 

If you want it to taste less sweet, start with ⅛ cup of honey. Then, taste it and add a teaspoon of honey each time until it is just as sweet as you like. 

Can I Substitute Margarine? 

The quality of butter matters, so I recommend avoiding margarine. It can work if it is your only option, but real butter will make it taste just like Texas Roadhouse butter.
