  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2             sticks  butter -- room temperature
                        ice cubes -- equivalent to 1 tray full
                        water

Using a metal double boiler  put the softened butter in the top part.

Place the ice in the bottom segment and fill the bottom pan with cold water to where it surrounds the bottom of the top section.

Using a mixer beat the butter until it starts to look like frosting.  Continue beating until it gets lighter and color and then starts to stick to the beaters.  Scrape the bowl several times as you do this.

When it starts to stick to the inside of the beaters stop beating and transfer to your storage container.  Refrigerate for several hours until the butter is firm before using.
