Maple Coffee Butter

This is from the Folger's web site... I think this could replace Nutella for me!  It's great on pancakes too!

2 teaspoons Folgers® Instant Coffee Crystals granules
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened


1. Stir the instant coffee crystals into the syrup in a heatproof glass measuring cup.

2. Heat in the microwave until hot (a minute or two).

3. Stir until the coffee is dissolved.

4. Cool and chill until cold.

5. Whip the butter in the food processor or with an electric mixer.

6. Drizzle in the maple-coffee mixture and whip until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.

7. Spread onto hot waffles, pancakes, bagels, English muffins, toast, or bread.
