  1. In a large cast-iron skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of salted butter over medium-high heat for about 1-2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of honey, stirring until combined and bubbling slightly.

  3. Lower the heat to medium and add 2 ounces of room-temperature cream cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir gently for 3-5 minutes until the cream cheese melts and combines into a smooth sauce.
