Homemade Butter...Fun with the kiddos!

BP was telling me how he made butter at school one day for snack! I would have never thought of trying to do this with my kids, and then a recipe came along in a magazine the other day.


Homemade Butter in Minutes

Measure 1 cup heavy cream and pour it into a jar that holds at least 24 ounces. Put on the lid-and make sure it's tight.

Shake, Rattle and Roll: Take turns with your kid shaking the jar an rolling it around on the floor. After 2-3 minutes, the heavy cream will turn into whipped cream. Let the jar rest for about 10 minutes as the cream deflates.

Shake for another minute or so until it separates and voila...butter! Strain any excess buttermilk and get the bread ready!
