"This is a good, inexpensive substitue for that more expensive ICBINB spread. It came from the April 1983 issue of Woman's Circle Home Cooking. I have made it several times, freezing any extra, with plastic wrap over the top, under the plastic lid, to prevent ice crystals from forming."

Ingredients:: 3
Yields:: 1 pound

ingredients

1 lb good quality margarine
1 cup buttermilk
¹⁄₄ - ¹⁄₂ cup good quality salad oil

directions

When margarine is very soft, place it in a food processor, with remaining ingredients and pulse to blend. Clean down sides with a rubber spatula, from time to time, as you stop the machine. When smoothly blended, pack into pint plastic containers and refrigerate. Freeze anything more than a pint. Keep refrigerated when not in use, as it will melt at room temperature!

This is a good substitute. This was fast and easy to prepare. I used 1/4 cup canola oil. Love the creamy texture....and the flavour is very good. Thank you Graymare for sharing! I made this for the PAC Spring 2009.

I am a nurse who lives and works in Northern New York State, not far from Lake Placid. I am owned by several cats and a dog. Quilting is my passion! I also like to cook, make greeting cards, read and spend time out doors. It would be hard for me to choose one cookbook that is my favorite! I love to collect cookbooks, especially those little spiral bound books produced by small organizations and local groups. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg">
