Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup bourbon
1/2 cup dried cherries
1 cup salted butter, room temperature
2 tbsp orange zest, freshly grated
2 tbsp confectioners' sugar (to taste)
1 tbsp orange bitters or 1 tbsp angostura bitters or 1 tbsp additional bourbon

Directions:

In a small bowl, soak the cherries in bourbon, stirring occasionally, until bourbon is almost absorbed.
This will take 2 to 12 hours.
Place the butter in a medium mixing bowl and with an electric mixer (fitted with the paddle) or wooden spoon, beat until light and fluffy.
Scrape down the sides.
Add the soaked cherries, zest, sugar and bitters or additional bourbon (if using) and beat to incorporate, scraping sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
Scrape into a small bowl, serving crock or butter mold and cover tightly or shape into a long roll in grease-proof paper (plastic, wax or parchment) for storing and slicing as needed.
