Buttahhhhhh, buttah, buttah

I've made a lot of difficult dishes and some that have brought me down to my knees with tears in my eyes, but whenever I've succeeded, I have never jumped for joy all over the place and sang to the tune of "I like bugs" from Yo Gabba Gabba. It happened today because today was the day I made BUTTER!

Now if you have had my cooking, you will know how much I love cooking with butter--- and heavy cream, and heavy cream makes butter. We just had a party for our little boy a week ago and what was leftover (among the many things) was a huge carton of heavy cream. I already made alfredo last night but I still had about 2 cups left over so today I pulled out the kitchen aid and made butter. Cinnamon and honey butter, but then I looked in my pantry and I remember I had this canister of French grey sea salt and put a bit in too just to give it a subtle saltiness.

Of course, I shaped it like the boxed butter because it was the sensible thing to do.

It just spreads so beautifully. It was such a great snack, not healthy, I'm sure, but delicious nonetheless. Of course it's only sensible to follow homemade butter with homemade bread, so yep, that is definitely next on the list.
