+334 It's difficult melting butter in the microwave, because one second too much and a bubble pops, leaving melted butter all over the inside of your microwave. amirite?

That's why you use a pan...

You could always put a napkin over it. It helps but could potentially ruin the butter.

one second too short, and you still have a rock. you cant win when it comes to melting butter in a microwave

if you're only a second short, there will be melted butter alllllll around the unmelted chunk. Move the unmelted piece around a bit and it'll be just fine.
