Things You’ll Need:
1. A large metal bowl — chill before use.
2. An electric mixer.
3. A blender (optional).
4. Strainer.
5. A small bowl
6. Spatula or large kitchen spoon
7. Heavy cream, without any added sugar, at a temp of about 60˚F.
Also, see the easy way to separate cream from milk at the end of this article. Keep in mind that it takes quite a bit of cream to make a small amount of butter. One gallon of heavy cream yields about three pounds of butter.
