These decorative pats of butter add a festive touch to Thanksgiving dinner. They are very easy to make using inexpensive candy molds.
Simply let the butter soften for about 30 minutes. Then, using a butter knife or small spatula, fill the molds. Check the underside to be sure there are no air bubbles.
Set the mold in the freezer for a short time to let the butter harden (it will be easier to get out of the mold if you do this). By applying a small amount of pressure to the underside of the mold, the butter should just pop out. Be careful not to dent the butter.

For the fall shapes in the photograph, I used this leaf candy mold.
To make the butter really pop, place the butter on a bed of cranberries.
