Maple lemon butter

In the spirit of today’s coffeehouses, here are recipes to serve if you have friends over for coffee--or tea. Be sure to have a bowl of strawberries or finger-cut pineapple or melon to balance the mix. The muffins and cake would also enhance a brunch menu.
I like to warm up the muffins and cake in the microwave just before serving. Use 10% power and check every 20 seconds (by touching them) so that they are not overheated.
Don’t forget the milk and lemon wedges for tea drinkers when setting the table.
Mix the butter, syrup, sugar, lemon juice and zest in a mini-processor until smooth. This can be made a day ahead; refrigerate. Let soften slightly before serving.
