35 Life Hacks That Actually Work

Soften Butter Easily

Butter is usually stored in the fridge, which is great for it’s shelf life, but not so great if you want to easily spread it on toast in the morning.

A quick way to soften butter, without melting it in the microwave is to heat a glass (either under hot water or in the microwave) and then place it over the butter. This will soften it just the right amount for use.
