    It looks like whipped cream in this pic, but truly does taste like a cross of butter and cream... I might just toss it lol

    If it did not separate and you did not throw away buttermilk, then you have whipped cream. Not clotted cream and not butter. You can just keep whisking, it is not done yet.

    Believe it or not, you can make butter in your clothes dryer. I used to do it for my kids years ago just for the fun of it. You put the cream in a plastic container, tape it up really really really well, and run it through the clothes dryer on no heat for about a half an hour or so. The butter separates out nicely.
