When a cow is milked and the milk left to set it will separate into two layers.  The top layer is cream which contains most of the milk fat.  The bottom layer is called skim milk after the cream is skimmed off of the top.  The cream can be separated by churning it into butter, which is the butter fat, and butter milk.
