What Is Whipped Butter?
Whipped butter is just simply either salted or unsalted butter that has been whipped with a mixer to make it light, fluffy and easy to spread onto breads and other things. Often served at restaurants with a bread basket before a meal.
Make Homemade Whipped Butter
I always start by gathering all of the ingredients needed in a recipe and weighing and measuring everything before I start to cook or bake. This part is really important and key in keeping everything organized.

To make this recipe you will need the following ingredients:
