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!

Steps:
- In a food processor, process the room temperature butter for a couple of seconds.
- With the machine running, slowly pour in the oil, then the water in a thin stream to allow the butter to absorb the liquids (this may take several minutes of pulsing and the mixture will be very "loose" like a pudding texture).
- Pour into a crock or bowl.
- Freeze or refrigerate until it firms up.
COUNTRY BUTTER (SOFT SPREAD)
A creamy, tasty and budget-stretching butter mixture. At one time my hubby & I had seven children living with us! In an effort to cut expenses I bought a book called Cheaper & Better (Homemade Alternatives To Storebought Goods). This recipe for a soft spread quickly became a family favorite. Tattered and stained, this is the page to which the book still falls open.
