What’s on your holiday breakfast menu this year? In my house, we’re absolutely going to include this delicious raspberry compound butter spread made with Finlandia™ imported butter! It’s easy enough to make for your everyday breakfasts yet classy enough to serve on special mornings. It even makes a pretty homemade gift idea!
I’ve always wanted to try making compound butter but thought that it would be too hard. I think I was letting the word “compound” throw me for a loop. Doesn’t it sound like something that should be fancy and complicated? I imagined 70-step recipes involving things like cheesecloth and words like “reduction.” Can you tell I watch a lot of cooking shows?
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that making compound butter really isn’t all that hard at all! In fact, this recipe has just four ingredients and took me less than 10 minutes to whip together (pun totally intended!). Check it out, then print out the recipe card so you have it handy for your big holiday breakfast!
Raspberry Compound Butter Recipe with Finlandia
I made this recipe with Finlandia imported butter. While, in theory, you can use any brand of butter, the rich and creamy flavor of Finlandia really makes a huge difference.
Ingredients:
- 7-oz Package of unsalted Finlandia imported butter, at room temperature
- ¼ cup fresh raspberries (doesn’t have to be precise)
- ¼ cup raspberry jam
- 1 tbsp. powdered confectioner sugar
How to make it:
- Cut the butter into chunks (makes it easier to blend in the next steps)
- Combine all of the ingredients together in a small mixing bowl, using a fork to mash them all together
- Blend using a hand mixer (if you’re using an electric beater, you only need one of the whisks) until it forms a smooth, creamy spread
- Refrigerate for about half an hour, until it’s just set. Garnish with raspberries if desired.
- Spread on biscuits, toast, muffins, waffles and anything else your heart desires!
Even my picky son loved the flavor of this raspberry compound butter recipe. He’s quite the butter connoisseur, and he agreed that the Finlandia is the richest and creamiest that he’s ever tasted.

Tip:
If you forget to take the Finlandia out of the fridge and don’t have time to wait for it to come to room temperature, just pop it in the microwave for about 10 seconds, then flip it over and microwave it for another 5 seconds. Repeat at 5-second intervals until it is soft enough to work with. Finlandia butter is creamier (in my opinion) than other generic butter that I’ve used, so it only took about 20 seconds to get it to the point that I wanted. Keep that in mind, as you do not want to turn the butter into soup for this recipe.
The Finlandia butter really does make this taste phenomenal. Did you know that it’s made with the purest milk from Finnish family-owned farms? My husband loves that since he’s half Finnish (the other half is Swedish). Finlandia has been making butter and cheese in Finland for over 100 years, so they definitely know their stuff. You won’t find any artificial ingredients or added hormones in their products. One thing I really love (aside from the amazing taste, of course) is how well the Finlandia farmers treat their cows…just like family. They even have a series called Moo Monday on their YouTube channel that highlights just how much the farmers appreciate and love their cows! This makes me so happy, since eating humanely is very important to me.
