Instructions
- Pour the cream into your Vitamix (or blender).

- Stop the blender and scrapes down the sides with a spatula to bring the cream into the center.

- Turn the blender on and blend for about 5 seconds, stop and scrape sides down again.
- Keep repeating this process several times until you see a fluid start to appear. You will know when the butter is forming.
- Blend for a few more seconds until solid butter sets up in center of container.
- Place butter in a fine mesh strainer to drain. Work butter with a spatula or your hands to remove as much liquid as you can.
