RASPBERRY LEMON BUTTER


INGREDIENTS:
1 (6 oz.) container fresh raspberries
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (brought to room temperature and cubed)
¼ - 1 teaspoon lemon zest (depending how lemony you want your butter)
4 tablespoons sugar (I used extra fine baker’s sugar)
1/8 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS:
In a food processor, electric food chopper or blender, gently puree raspberries and lemon zest.  Add the sugar and mix into the puree. In a food processor or blender, cream the butter.  Add the salt and mix into the creamed butter.  Slowly add the pureed raspberries to the creamed butter.  Mix until well blended. Remove from food processor and put into a tightly covered container.    If you would like to make it look elegant, pipe it into your serving container.  Store in the refrigerator…but let it soften for about 30 minutes before serving.  Serve with biscuits, bread, toast, , Easy Sweet Rolls and Bread Dough , or anything else that sounds divine.
