butter

Gus and i made some home made butter today! he did this at school a few weeks ago, so he knew what would happen, but its still fun :)

i needed the cream to make some Christmas candies (making them a bit early to send over seas to my brother) and had about half of the container left.

it realy couldnt be easier! all you need is cream, a jar and some willing helpers!

just put the cream in the jar, put lid on tight, and shake away!

it'll turn to whipped cream first, but dont stop! a few mins after it turns to whipped cream it will clump up into a clump of butter with 'buttermilk' seperated from it. i poured it from the jar into a strainer to seperate the 'milk' from butter.
