Soften cream cheese and butter quickly
If you want to soften cream cheese or butter quickly, there are a few reliable methods. The fastest way is to use the microwave. For the cream cheese, remove it from its foil packaging and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for about 15 seconds, then test for softness by pressing the back of a spoon into the surface. If it is softened, it should give way easily. If not, continue to microwave on high for 8 seconds at a time until the cream cheese softens. For the butter, microwave in 10-second increments and rotate the butter between each.
Alternatively, you can put butter or cream cheese on the counter, cut it into small pieces and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the material to soften more quickly at room temperature.
Storage instructions
