"Truffle Butter" is a song by Trinidadian-American rapper Nicki Minaj featuring Canadian rapper Drake and American rapper Lil Wayne. It is included as an exclusive bonus track on the iTunes Store edition of Minaj's third studio album The Pinkprint (2014). Produced by Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records and Republic Records, the song was released as the fifth single from the album on January 23, 2015. "Truffle Butter" is a mix between hip hop and house music genres and contains a sample of Maya Jane Coles' song "What They Say" (2010). In March 2015, it was sent to urban contemporary and contemporary hit radio.

The song peaked at number 14 on the US Billboard Hot 100, extending her lead as the female with the third most appearances on the Hot 100. Various artists such as T.I. and Ludacris have released cover versions of the song. The song received a nomination for Best Rap Performance at the 58th Grammy Awards.

During an interview with Capital Xtra on June 23, 2013, Minaj revealed that her then-upcoming album The Pinkprint would "definitely" include a collaboration with Canadian rapper Drake: "We're supposed to meet up this week to get some stuff crack-a-ling in the studio. I think there'll be another feature on the album that will blow people away. I'm super excited about that too, but it's obviously a secret!" In December 2014, Minaj released the track list for The Pinkprint, which included two songs featuring Drake and Lil Wayne: "Only" appears on the standard release, while "Truffle Butter" is included on the iTunes deluxe edition.
