Notes

NOTES
Compound butters make a wonderful hostess gifts and holiday gifts. You can put the butter into a pretty glass jar with a label, or roll it into a log atop plastic wrap. Then take the log and wrap in some butcher paper, twist the ends and tie with twine. Simply add a pretty label and you’re good to go!

VARIATIONS
If you are intolerant to sucralose or want Paleo or Primal versions, finely ground coconut sugar or powdered honey can be used in place of Splenda.

CarbSmart Podcast Episode 23: Refusing Holiday Food and Staying Low-Carb can be tough at first but you can do it to avoid the Food Pushers. The holidays are straight ahead, and with them piles and piles of carby junk, and worse, people nagging you to eat the stuff. Why so many people think that saying things like "But you have to eat it! It's traditional!" and "I worked all afternoon making it just for you" constitutes an expression of holiday goodwill, I have no idea, but sadly this behavior is all too common. You need to think ahead about how to respond to this sort of thing.
