Making homemade butter isn't something everybody thinks about, but it can easily be made using whipping cream and a stand mixer. When you're making butter what you're doing is separating the fat from the milk. This can be done using a stand mixer, hand mixer, blender or mason jar (shake by hand). Thankfully making butter today is more modernized and less time consuming, then back in the day.
Keep in mind that homemade butter can be about twice as expensive as butter you buy in the store (depending on the price of cream), so it isn't any cheaper, but it is a great option when you can't buy store bought butter. I purchase Sarah Farms whipping cream at Costco for $3.59 for a 32 ounce bottle (1 quart) which is a great price! One quart of cream yields about 1 pound of butter, so in this case, it's about the same price as store bought.
I don't know about you but there's just something about making your own butter that takes you back to simpler times ❤. If you've never made your own butter before, you don't know what you're missing. I promise once you make it for the first time, you'll be hooked! I've already made 3 pounds myself to store in the freezer. If you do decide to make your own butter, let me know how it goes.
Here's a quick step-by-step video on how quickly and easily you can make butter using whipping cream and a stand mixer!
