"the butter" but unironically.

When in doubt go with French: "Beurre".

Just try not to imagine it as Sylvester Stallone failing to pronounce butter.

I'm French, so that's why it resonated with me in the first place, it would truly come from a place of love, my stomach. I could legit imagine something like "ma petite beurette" except there's a problematic connotation since that word is also used to describe women of north African descent and I think it's a bit derogatory.
