Can you use this in baking, as in shortbread cookies, or just on toast or say, in mashed potatoes?

(You can use an ice cream machine or a hand mixer too). Strain this thick mixture into a cheese cloth covered bowl to separate the butterfat from the whey. then pour off the buttermilk-whey and drink it or save it for a recipe. Knead the butter until the color darkens and the liquid comes out of it. At this point you can add sea salt if you like... to taste... 1/2 tsp or more if you like. *** Irish butter is richer than American butter. American butter is only 30% - 35% butter fat. You can find Irish butter in some stores.

I decided to treat myself. The butter is richer in flavor, like the butter I ate when a child. Seems the butter today is watered down.
