is it ok to leave butter out on the counter
Baking 911 suggests keeping butter on the counter in a tightly covered butter dish for several days at a room temperature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit. To make the butter last for a longer period of time on your counter top, store it in a butter crock. This insulated stoneware receptacle keeps the butter cool by packing the butter in the hollowed-out lid and filling the jar with cold water.
