Citrus Butter (Safeera Kaka)

8 Tbsp 1 stick unsalted butter softened
1 vanilla bean I used a tsp of vanilla bean paste
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp grated orange zest
2 tsp grated lemon zest
Instructions

Beat the butter in a mixer until light and creamy.
Cut the vanilla bean in half and scrape the beans out of the pod; save the pod for another use (I love to put them into a bowl of sugar; vanilla sugar is wonderful).
Add the beans, sugar and both orange and lemon zests to the bowl and beat until blended.
Scrape from the bowl and either pack into ramekins or pipe into a bowl.
