Brandy butter

Method

• step 1

  Put the butter and icing sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until pale and lightly whipped.

• step 2

  Briefly whisk in the brandy until just combined. Taste and add a splash more brandy if you prefer a stronger flavour. If the butter splits when adding the brandy, add 1-2 tbsp more icing sugar to bring the mixture back together. Chill until ready to serve.
