Butter

Yep! you read the title right.... Butter... not just any butter, but HOMEMADE butter!!! I actually just literally made my very own homemade butter, and I will NOT tell a lie.... It was awesome!!

I was making more bread this morning when I noticed I had no more butter or margarine. Since I am trying to be all frugal and stuff and remembered This pin and had all the ingredients, why not?

The taste isn't bad either....
So you start with your ingredients in the bowl of your mixer...
Literally just heavy cream and salt

Then you mix, and mix and mix even some more...
eventually you will get to the whipped cream stage..

And of course you can do whatever you want while you wait because it's a stand mixer and is doing all the work for you. Leave that awesome machine on for a little, actually a little is an understatement... this next part seems to have taken forever maybe like 20 or so minutes.... but once the cream gets all grainy in stuff you feel like you are a success!!

Oh btw you may want to cover it when it starts to separate, I had buttermilk flying in all directions when it started.
Look at all that buttermilk!!
It was tasty and spread nicely and was just plain fun to make!
