Just gave this a go, and I cannot believe how easy it was! If I can do it then anyone can all you have to do is shake, shake and shake it some more. I cannot tell you how satisfying it is when you think it's not doing anything and then you hear that moment that it all separates! It tastes lovely too, so creamy and better than any butter we've had, plus you know there's no nasty added ingredients. Thanks OP28/04/11 - A bad day for shoppers everywhere (Tesco shoppers that is!)

Used the whipping attachment of my food processor and it has got to be the creamiest tastiest butter i've ever had, just a shame it won't last as long as store bough. Buttermilk yummy tooMinds are like parachutes - they only function when open.

GRRRRR! I got some whoopsied cream and decided to make butter with it. I have done it quite a few times before and it was always great.
However, I missed the stage where it turned into butter, but thought it wasn't quite done so kept whipping it.
Erm, I have now ended up with what looks like thick cream again! Can I do anything with it? If I keep whipping it, will it separate again?
If not, can I use it for anything?Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These

I have extra thick cream, can I use that? Should I water it down a bit first?June Grocery Challenge £493.33/£500 July £/£500

Having defrosted lots of whoopsied cream from the freezer I set off to make cream and to my horror can't find the recipe on here- where have the instructions gone?
I've searched but no joy - can anyone help please ?NO FARMS = NO FOOD0 -
From what I can remember, the method involved a great deal of agitation and not a lot else.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
