Question 4

Can I microwave the butter to speed up softening it?

Accepted Answer

The short answer is, no. You want the butter to be really soft, but not at all melted, which is nearly impossible to achieve using the microwave. It's better to set the butter out on the counter a couple of hours ahead of time and be patient.
