Homemade Butter

1 c. heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp. salt

Pour cream into a hand crank style mixer, Kitchenaide or a jar with a tight fitting lid. Begin to "churn" cream by whipping with paddle attachment. If using a jar, screw lid on and begin shaking. Churn/shake until cream begins to look like butter. At this point add in salt. Continue churning/shaking until mixture completely turns to butter. (If using the mixer it will take about 10 minutes for this to happen.) Strain off buttermilk from the butter. Place in a butter crock or small bowl. Enjoy!
