This was pretty good. I defintely used more lemon than called for. But, I liked the flavor even though DH didn't care for it that much.

I made this to go with some frozen yeast rolls for a luncheon that I catered. The ladies raved over it! I didn't use as much honey as called for, two heaping tablespoons, and it was just sweet enough. The lemon did give it a little something extra! It was a hit! Thanks for posting!

I made a big pot of bean soup and served it with corn bread. We had the neighbors over to share the soup and I wanted to make a special butter for the corn bread. And I DID IT!!! (With your help). This was delicious. I doubled the recipe -- but left the honey about the same (2/3 c). It was just right. The next morning we made Belgian Waffles and used the left over butter on them - outstanding. Thanks, Melin!!!

Made this in the morning to have at dinner; approximately 12 hours later. It made a wonderful addition to homemade rolls, recipe #99966. Everyone enjoyed it and was asking for the recipe. This will be a repeat.
