- Start by barely softening the butter so it is spreadable, but still firm. Grab your favorite wood board or platter and spread the butter onto the board.
- Top with your favorite toppings listed below. I suggest making different savory and sweet combinations.
- Cut up a French bread loaf for dipping.
- Can serve butter board at room temperature.

Notes
- I would definitely suggest using salted butter.
- There are all types of butter available. If you use a European butter like Kerrygold, you will notice it is a richer, more vibrant yellow color.
- If you use Challenge Butter, Land O'Lakes Butter, or Costco brand butter, you will notice it to be a lighter yellow color.
- The European has a richer flavor and the color looks beautiful on a wood board.
