Ingredients

Instructions
- Measure 2 cups of heavy cream, cover cup or bowl, and let sit for a couple of hours or overnight to reach full room temperature.

- Over buttermilk, strain the rest of the milk out of the butter, as best as you can.
- Place butter in a small bowl or container.

Notes
Anything added to the butter should be start off small. We recommend a pinch of butter first, the taste it. You can always add more to the room temperature butter, but you cannot remove afterwards, hence no actual measurements to the were given beside the heavy cream.
Cold heavy cream will take years to churn into butter.
While the buttermilk is slightly thinner than store bought, it works just the same.
