I'm a human being on planet earth. I've lived hundreds of lifetimes. In this incarnation I'm here to advance medicine.

We are one week shy of Christmas Eve!

That gives me seven days to fit in a few more holiday-themed recipes; let’s start with this uniquely delicious “butter”.

White Chocolate Eggnog “Butter”

There’s no actual butter in the recipe, but the texture is smooth & creamy and the flavor is rich & decadent, so I couldn’t come up with a more appropriate name.

Sweet (but not cloyingly so), the butter is perfect as a component to your favorite desserts or as part of an indulgent breakfast or snack. The sky is the limit in terms of how you can enjoy it; here are some ideas to pique your creativity:

  • spread on toast
  • sandwich between cookies
  • slather on a baked sweet potato
  • stir into yogurt
  • melt into oatmeal
  • dollop on top of cupcakes or muffins
  • straight off the spoon

I’m completely guilty of the last one.
