Homemade BUTTER!

First you need a pint of cream and a mason jar. I used organic heavy whipping cream which added an extra step. Stick to regular cream. ( organic if you prefer)

Pour the cream into the jar, put the lid on and make sure it's tight!

Now the fun part...SHAKE IT UP! Shake it continuously for about 10 minutes.

After about 10 minutes you will notice the butter and the buttermilk starting to separate. Keep shaking for a few more minutes till you have a lump of butter. Use the lid to strain out the buttermilk. This can be used for baking!

Add some ice cold water to the butter, close the lid and shake some more, then drain it out. Repeat this process about 2-3 times, till the water is not so milky.

Scoop it into a container, you may add a little salt to taste. You now have fresh butter and buttermilk!
