Spread a little fall on your toast

When you make butter, the whey will separate during whipping. Pro tip: Don't throw it away. Keep it in the fridge and use it as a sweet pumpkin spice coffee creamer. See, this recipe is a two-for-one special. You're welcome.

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¼ teaspoon ground clove
- ⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
- In a small saucepan, toast the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, clove and white pepper over medium heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cream and bring to a light simmer, then remove from the heat and let cool completely. Store in a sealable container and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, place the cream in a food processor with the confectioners' sugar and salt. Spin the mixture until the fat turns into butter and the liquid separates. Transfer the mixture to a large piece of cheesecloth and wring out any excess liquid.
- Transfer the butter to a small condiment bowl and use immediately or store in the refrigerator for later.
