Butter portion (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pat

'butter portion' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pat that I've seen before include "Light hand stroke" , "Knob (of butter)" , "Glib; touch affectionately" , "Touch; name" , "Some butter, maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Star Tribune and the Newsday.
