Cranberry Honey Butter

I found this recipe on the cooking channel website.  I was looking for something festive to have for Christmas morning, but not too heavy since we will have a big meal later that day.  This looks delicious and I am definitely going to make it.  Here is the link to the website in case you like this recipe and want to browse for others.
