You can't add butter to skim milk and make whole milk. What is missing from whole milk is the cream. Butter is made from cream - the two are not equivalent. But...you can add the following 'creams' to 1 cup of skim milk. 1 1/2 teaspoons heavy cream + 1 cup skim milk = 1% milk
1 Tablespoon heavy cream + 1 cup skim milk = 2% milk
2 Tablespoon heavy cream + 1 cup skim milk = whole milk Heavy cream has 36% and 40% milk fat (The initials m.f. will be printed on carton.) 1Tablespoon light cream + 1 cup skim milk = 1% milk
1Tablespoons + 2 teaspoon light cream + 1 cup skim milk = 2% milk
3Tablespoons light cream + 1 cup skim milk = whole milk
Light cream has 18%-29% milk fat.

The ingredients in the butter in my fridge are listed as Cream, Milk and Salt.
You can add UNSALTED butter to any type of milk to increase the milk fat content. Butter has a milk fat content of 80%.
Also listed on the butter in my fridge - 2 teaspoons of butter (10g) contain 8 grams of milk fat.
One liter of skim milk weighs ~ 1032 grams.
To make one liter of 1% milk, melt 2-1/2 teaspoons of unsalted butter (10g) and fill up to the 1 liter mark with skim milk.
To make one liter of 2% milk, melt 5 teaspoons of unsalted butter (20g) and fill up to the 1 liter mark with skim milk.
To make one liter of 4% (whole) milk, melt 10 teaspoons of unsalted butter (40 g) and fill up to the 1 liter mark with skim milk.
The dairies remove all the fat and then mix whatever they need to make all the varieties of milk, cream, butter, etc.
You can add heavy cream (whipping cream) to skim milk or any other variation of milk to make milk or cream to whatever fat content you want. Heavy cream has a fat content of 35-40% depending on where you live.
You can make whipping cream by adding unsalted butter to skim milk, or any other type of milk. A pound of butter weighs 454 grams. 80% of that 454 = 363 grams of milk fat. So melt that pound of unsalted butter and top it off with enough skim milk to make one liter of 36% whipping cream. Or modify the recipe according to what type of milk you have available.
So even though the stores may be closed, you may have the ingredients to make some of those things you thought you had to do without. I would guess that most people would not have unsalted butter ready at hand, but it is easy to find on store shelves, and is a good substitute for the salty variety.
And mixing your own may save you a few bucks too.

Can you substitute heavy cream for whole milk to dilute cream of mushroom soup?
You can, however, heavy cream is much thicker than whole milk which will cause the soup to be a much thicker consistency than you may want. Milk is a better choice.
How much half and half?
"Half and half" is half milk and half cream. All the cream is taken from the milk and then a 1:1 ratio of fatless milk and cream are mixed. half and half has more fat than whole milk, so they are not interchangeable.
Can you use all purpose cream as an alternative to whipping cream when making yogurt?
Recipes I have used, and that came with my yogurt maker say you can use: Whole milk 2% milk 1% milk Fat free milk Soy Milk or Almond milk to make yogurt. I have never seen a recipe using cream for yogurt making. So I think all purpose cream would make a heavy yogurt and so would whipping cream. When I made yogurt using 2% milk it is much lighter than yogurt make with whole milk and takes longer to cure. The yogurt maker suggested 10 hours for whole milk yogurt and 12 hours for 2% yogurt. Good luck.
Can you replace cream cheese with milk?
Cream is separated from whole milk by centrifuge or gravity. If you have unhomogenised milk, leave some to stand in the fridge and remove the cream from the top of the container the next day. Milk that has been homogenised will not give much cream in this way. Raw milk would work well.

Can you make butter out of whole milk?
Not unless you get it out of the cow. By the time whole milk reaches you, a significant amount of the butterfats have been removed (and used for heavy and light cream, half-and-half, etc.). There's not enough fat in whole milk to form the binding or emulsive effect one needs in order to whip cream. In a pinch you can use this recipe, but it is not real whipped cream. Note you can use regular milk instead of skim. I have also used instant jello instead of gelitin (use flavor that goes with with what your making). Living in the mountains during the winter, when you can't get to the store, makes your pretty resourceful. Immersion blender helps alot. WHIPPED CREAM FROM SKIM MILK1/4 c. skim milk 1/2 tsp. unflavored gelatin 1/4 c. cold water 2/3 c. nonfat dry milk 2 tsp. sugar 1 tsp. vanilla Pour milk into a metal mixing bowl.

Place over low heat and cook until gelatin dissolves. Cool. Remove skim milk and beaters from freezer. Add gelatin and remaining ingredients. Beat at high speed until it forms soft peaks. Cover bowl and chill at least 20 minutes before serving.
