Butter Spread

This is a homemade butter spread that we really like. You store it in the fridge, and it's a little soft so it spreads very easily. Also, it's half real butter and half canola oil, so it's cheaper and healthier than real butter or store-bought margarine.

Butter Spread
2 C canola oil (or other vegetable oil)
2-3 Tb powdered nonfat milk
2 c (4 sticks) butter, softened

1. Blend the oil and powdered milk in a blender until combined, about 30 seconds.
2. Add softened butter and blend until combined, about 45 seconds - 1 minute.
3. Pour into a container and place in refrigerator (it will firm up once it cools down).
