I never seem to remember to set my butter out so that it can reach room temperature before I want to use it. Then I tend to microwave it and get it too "melty" which messes up the consistency of my recipe. I found this trick somewhere on Pinterest and it works like a charm! (I'd link back to it but I'm not sure where it is)
Put your stick of butter with the wrapper still on in the microwave.
(Just make sure it’s not a foil wrapper!)
Heat for 4 seconds on high.
Flip it to the next side and heat for 4 more seconds.
Do this for each side for a total of 16 seconds. The time may vary slightly depending on your microwave power.
The result will be a slightly squishable stick of butter that is softened just right!
