I guess it depends on how much you pay for your milk and butter. I like to spend a little extra for organic milk since it seems to last longer. Butter is costly though. I try to buy extra when I can find it on sale. It's a good hack to know, though!

True, but when when cream is beaten and the butter separated, the resulting liquid leftover is buttermilk, not milk . . so this isn't exactly accurate.

If this whips up as good as real cream I’m going to start doing this instead of buying cream…it will be more economical to do that. Plus it won’t have CARRAGEENAN added to it like most cream does ( a thickener because if it was really heavy cream it would whip without it).

THAT is flippin BRILLIANT!!!!!

OK, from a science perspective, this is NOT HEAVY CREAM. What you're essentially making is half&half with air in it (so a little whipped). This is important for certain recipes that call for heavy cream (whipping cream has less fat content than plain heavy cream). You haven't removed the water or sugars from the end product (neither of which are in heavy cream). It may work for coffee, but I can't imagine that, if whipped, it is going to remain in that form--if it even whips at all. You can't magically make cream out of milk unless you either un-homogenize it (and skim off the cream) or add so much butter that it becomes more or less light cream. It's not going to have the zero (or near-zero) carb/sugar content of heavy cream. And, if you use salted butter, it's going to be, well, salty.
