Country Butter (Soft Spread)
Description: A creamy, tasty and budget-stretching butter mixture. At one time my hubby & I had seven children living with us! In an effort to cut expenses I bought a book called Cheaper & Better (Homemade Alternatives To Storebought Goods). This recipe for a soft spread quickly became a family favorite. Tattered and stained, this is the page to which the book still falls open.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb margarine (not the spreadable kind)
- 1 cup corn oil
- 1 cup buttermilk
Steps:
- Whip ingredients together in a food processor or mixer (the consistency will be rather soft, but useable).
- For best consistency refrigerate overnight.
- Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.
- Keeps well for 1 month.
