How to Soften Butter Quickly – Option 1:
Cut up your butter into smaller pieces! That’s right… smaller pieces of butter will soften much faster and rise to room temperature far more quickly than a stick of butter will. The smaller you cut your pieces, the faster your butter will be ready to use in your recipes! After cutting, simply spread out the pieces, flat in a single layer, and your butter will be ready in a jiffy!
How to Soften Butter Quickly – Option 2:
Roll out your butter with a Rolling Pin! Yes… the same theory goes for this: a thinner piece of butter will soften faster than a thicker stick, right? Simply place unwrapped stick of butter between 2 pieces of large wax paper, and gently roll out with your rolling pin. Once your butter has been flattened, remove the top piece of waxed paper, and your butter will be soft and ready to use within minutes! Easy-peasy!

I’ve always had trouble with softened butter! I’ve had butter sit out and literally be hard at room temperature so I guess it all depends on where you live. So, I discovered a way to fix that by putting the butter in the oven with just the oven light on for an hour or so and it works every time!
