SOFTENED BUTTER WITH OLIVE OIL



Softened butter with Olive Oil image

We use this in place of those expensive butters. I like that it softens up so quickly, and that it contains olive oil. I usually double this recipe to make a large tub. Remove from refrigerator for a few minutes prior to buttering toast or for anything really soft. You can add honey to this to make a really nice honey butter....

SOFT SPREAD BUTTER

This is a homemade margarine or soft spread 'butter'. While it is not lower in calorie, it has a higher ratio of unsaturated to saturated fat than butter, and unlike margarine, it contains no trans fat. Create a flavored butter by adding garlic or cinnamon, or anything you chose!
