  3. 3
    Cool partially: Place in refrigerator for 15-20 minutes until it starts to turn opaque around the edges but is still soft.
  4. 4
    Add additives: Stir in arrowroot powder or other dry additives, then add vitamin E and fragrance.
  5. 5
    Whip it: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip on high for 5-10 minutes until light and fluffy with soft peaks.
  6. 6
    Package: Transfer to jars using a piping bag or spoon for a pretty finish. Store away from heat.
πŸ’‘ Tip: If your butter becomes grainy, it cooled too quickly. Remelt gently and try again, cooling more slowly.
