Strawberry Butter (aka Butter Late Than Never)

 
I'm going to apologize upfront for the bad photos tonight.  Apparently Technical Difficulties is the order of the week.

As best I can tell there is nothing wrong with the TCC blog itself and if you are a subscriber, you should have no problems with the email posts.  There is something wonky that happens sometimes when you try to access the website itself, so as you do with home and work, don't click on anything that you are not familiar with.  Apologize for any inconvenience and let's get back to our usual culinary programming. Thank goodness for fallback Wednesdays, huh? (Yes, that is what I'm calling them now).

So spring is in the air and strawberries are in the market so I wanted to try something new with them.  As the Parental Tasters will attest, this one is pretty sweet (and simple to boot)!

Strawberry Butter

1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, softened
3/4 cup strawberries, chopped small
1/4 cup powder sugar

In a mixer, blend together the softened butter and fresh chopped strawberries.


Sift in the powder sugar and mix until blended together.


You can leave your final product chunky (like I did) or blend it until the strawberries break down a bit more.

I baked up some biscuits (sorry, not from scratch) and Dad slathered them with the strawberry butter.  Happiness ensued.

NOTES

The butter would go great on pancakes or waffles too. 

Should be able to store in the fridge for at least a week, well...if it lasts that long.
