Strawberry Butter

This stuff is awesome with Sister Schubert's Rolls (or any homemade bread).
This takes a while to make but is well worth the effort.

Strawberry Butter
2 sticks butter, room temperature
2 sticks margarine, room temperature
16 oz. strawberries, thawed or fresh
3/4 cup powdered sugar

Whip margarine and butter in a stand mixer until fluffy. Add strawberries. Mix until well-blended. This may take a LONG time (up to an hour) for all the strawberries to blend into a smooth buttery texture so turn it on and let it mix, use a spatula to wipe down the sides from time to time. Once well-blended, add powdered sugar and mix until well-blended again. Cover and store in refrigerator. Use within 2 weeks.

Yum yum! I've always wondered whether or not I really "need" a stand mixer...I'm always reminded of it when Pioneer Woman gives one away. Now I see that I definitely DO need one! Thanks for sharing, this sounds so good! :)

Been busy getting ready for Farmer's Market. Been sewing aprons for my girls. Almost have them finished. We are getting excited to meet some new friends.
Thanks for the recipe. I will try it for sure. Hope your 4th was fun!
