KellyTheChef said:I wouldn't think that the pumpkin bread needs to be warm...room temp would be fine!
Here is one that is actually pumpkin flavored/sweetened butter. This may be easier to do since normal pumpkin butters would take some cooking right now. Since you are getting it ready for in the morning, maybe this would work better.

Here is one of the comments with some helpful hints:
Reviewed on Feb. 7, 2006 by LVS OK,this really is quite good and is served in a restaurant here in Holland,MI. What you have to do is mix the softened butter and pumpkin together. Yes, it's curdled. Now put it in the microwave to soften the butter (this only takes a few seconds), and then take a fork and whip it. If the curdling is not gone after whipping, put it back in the microwave and whip again. Now, add your spices. Beat and then put in the frig to harden. You can always take it out to reach room temp if you prefer...and add ground pecans to it, too.More spices if you prefer.I used brown sugar instead of XXX sugar and only enough to lighly sweeten.
LOL!whiteyteresa said:The butter is great this morning, I keep tasting it with a spoon to make sure
