Honeycomb butter

125 gram unsalted butter, softened

1/3 cup (12g) finely chopped honeycomb

2 cup (500ml) buttermilk

2 eggs

40 gram butter, melted

2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cup (300g) self-raising flour

1/3 cup (75g) caster (superfine) sugar

Method

1.Make honeycomb butter: Beat butter in small bowl with electric mixer until light and fluffy; stir in honeycomb. Set aside at room temperature.

2.Whisk buttermilk, eggs, butter and vanilla in medium jug until combined. Sift flour, sugar and salt into medium bowl; gradually whisk in buttermilk mixture until smooth.

3.Cook hotcakes, in batches, by dropping ¼ cup batter for each hotcake into heated oiled large frying pan; sprinkle each hotcake with six raspberries. Cook hotcakes until bubbles appear on the surface; turn, brown other side. Remove from pan; cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter to make 12 hotcakes.

4.Serve hotcakes with honeycomb butter.

Serve hotcakes with maple syrup and extra raspberries. You can transfer the cooked hotcakes to an oven tray or heatproof plate, cover with foil and place in oven preheated to 120°C to keep warm while you cook remaining hotcakes. Plain, uncoated honeycomb is available from speciality food stores, health food stores, good delicatessens and confectionery shops.
