who knew making butter is so easy?! and delicious and makes a perfect christmas present!

i followed this guy's instructions and it turned out so good and only took about 10 minutes.
how to make butter
first just put some cream in a mixer (use the splash shield):
homemade butter
turn it on high:

it will turn into whipped cream - just keep going:
then it will "crack" and separate into butter and buttermilk:
here it is after i "cleaned" it (rinsed it with cold water until it runs clear):
then you can just add whatever you want! so i cut some of our thyme and rosemary and threw in a little salt. voila! butter.
we picked up these cute jars from crate and barrel and they made perfect sized gifts.
next time i'll experiment with more flavors.  you don't need to refrigerate it, and it tastes amazing.
