Sweet & Savory Butter Recipes
doTERRA's Living Magazine featured these amazing mouth-watering butter recipes. I'm going to have to try making them all! These butters would make such a decadent and luxurious addition to a holiday table.
If you really want to go over-the-top, why not try these recipes using homemade butter? I did this as a child and recently with my own daughter. Just get some clean, empty jars and fill 3/4 full with heavy whipping cream. Shake for a long time... first you will get whipped cream... just keep shaking until solid butter forms in the liquid. Pour out the liquid into another clean jar - it is the buttermilk, and you can use it in other recipes. Rinse and knead the butter under cool water, then put the butter in a bowl. Add a little fine sea salt, if desired. Now you are ready to follow one of the recipes below using your own homemade butter!
