Gotta love this recipe, strange yet wonderful. Haven't tried it, but wish I knew about it when I had a freezerful of breastmilk to spare . . . don't know if hubby would've been game enough though. Whatever you were thinking when you discovered it, well, pure genius! Will give it a go next time I have some breastmilk on hand . . . I mean on breast . . .

    vigorously shaking the breast milk will damage the proteins and make it lose it's benefit to the baby. but just for a treat to make with surplus milk it is a great idea.

    It's too bad I don't have an over abundance of mommy's milk, or I'd have to give this a try. I would have never thought to make butter out of my milk. What an idea.
