π₯ Ingredients
- 40 percent heavy whipping cream 1 qt

1Add 40 percent heavy whipping cream to bowl of stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
-
2Turn mixer on to level 4 or 5 and mix until you get whipped cream.
-
3As the cream gets thicker, increase the mixer speed.
-
4The cream should separate from the milk. The milk is buttermilk.
-
5When the cream gets lumpy and starts to turn yellow, keep whipping until the buttermilk separates from the cream.
-
6Scrape the butter off the walls of the bowl and out of the mixer blades and smush it all together.
-
7Add the butter to a fine mesh bag or cheesecloth or face towel . Rinse the butter in iced water because if you don't rinse the buttermilk off of the butter, the butter will spoil quickly.
-
8Shape the butter and store it in a container in the fridge.
