Are you like me and love spreadable butter but hate the plastic tubs it comes in?  Then this recipe is for you:

Soft Butter Spread

2 sticks butter (or Earth Balance vegan butter substitute) at room temperature

1/2 cup safflower oil (or you can experiment with other oils)

Blend butter with oil until fluffy, then slowly add oil.  Chill.  

It's that easy.  The original recipe called for 1/2 cup water, as well, but I didn't like the consistency of the final product.
