Add the cream to your food processor and process until the butter separates. This will take 5-10 minutes and you will know when it’s done because you’ll see the butter. There will also be some buttermilk. Pour off the buttermilk, store for later use.

Remove your butter from the processor and give a quick rinse. You can dry in cheesecloth, squeezing gently to remove excess moisture, or set on a coffee filter a couple of minutes. Add the butter to a bowl and add salt, combine. If you prefer unsalted butter omit the salt.

Use immediately and store leftovers in the refrigerator.
