Country Crock Spreadable Double Butter
What it is
This is a butter-flavored spread made with a blend of oils and dairy. It is designed to be soft and easy to spread right out of the refrigerator. The addition of canola oil contributes to its smooth texture and mild flavor profile. Calcium is also included in its formulation.
How people cook with it
This spread is a versatile option for everyday cooking and baking needs. It can be used in place of traditional butter in many applications.
- Spreading on toast
- Baking cookies
- Sautéing vegetables
- Melted over popcorn
You can use this spread in any recipe that calls for butter. Its softened consistency makes it ideal for creaming with sugar for cakes and cookies, ensuring a smooth batter. It melts easily when heated, making it suitable for pan-frying or drizzling over finished dishes. For baking, it incorporates well into doughs and batters, contributing moisture and richness. It can also be used as a simple topping for warm bread or vegetables.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional butter, this spread is formulated to remain soft and spreadable even when cold. This is due to its blend of oils, which have lower melting points than butterfat. It also contains canola oil, which offers a different flavor and fat composition compared to pure butter.

Home cooks looking for a convenient and easy-to-use butter alternative will find this product useful.
How to keep the rest
After opening, keep the remaining spread refrigerated. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent it from absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator. It is best used by the date indicated on the packaging.
