Instructions:

1. Whip Butter: In a food processor or using a hand-held mixer, whip the softened butter at medium speed until it turns pale yellow in color.

2. Add Ingredients: Incorporate the cranberries, cranberry sauce, brown sugar, honey, walnuts, orange zest, and lemon zest into the whipped butter. Continue whipping until the mixture takes on a light pink hue.

3. Incorporate Buttermilk: Gradually add the buttermilk to the butter mixture, whipping until fully incorporated.

4. Freeze Ahead: If preparing in advance, freeze the Cranberry Butter. When ready to serve, simply thaw and add 1 teaspoon of buttermilk before re-whipping to restore its creamy consistency.

5. Serve and Enjoy: This Cranberry Butter is versatile and pairs wonderfully with sweet breads, muffins, pancakes, waffles, and French toast.

6. Note: If using a food processor, add the walnuts last and fold them in by hand to prevent them from being ground into a powder.
