Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter using an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 2–3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
Add the honey, salt, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium until fully blended.
Gradually add heavy cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until the frosting becomes smooth and reaches a spreadable or pipeable consistency.
Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Re-whip before using for best texture.

Notes

For a thicker frosting, chill slightly before piping.
Can be flavored with citrus zest, cinnamon, or almond extract for variation.
Great for decorating naturally sweet desserts or breakfast pastries like scones and pancakes.
