- Place heavy cream in food processor or blender. Hit blend and watch your appliance do the work. You will see the mixture changes in both consistency and color over about 2-3 minutes.
- Continue to mix until cream separates into butter and butterfat. Drain off butterfat. Discard or reserve for other recipes like White Chocolate and Raspberry Pancakes.
- Add 1/2 cup ice water and continue to blend for 30 seconds. Drain off water. Add additional 1/2 cup ice water and repeat. Drain.
- Remove from food processor or blender and fold in cheese salt by hand. Mix well or else you will get a mouth full of salt at some point. Add other flavors as well- fresh herbs, citrus zest, dried fruit bits or other spices.
- Refrigerate until ready to use in any recipe that requires butter!

How easy is this! I never ever thought to make homemade butter, but I’m definitely going to give it a try. You make it sound so EASY and that’s my favorite type of recipe. Thanks so much for sharing. Pinned
I just recently made my own Almond Butter. Now I’ll try making “just” butter. Surprised about the ice water. I would not have known that!:) Pinned and SU’d. Did you link this one up at #theWeekendSocial. I’d love to see it there!
