SIMPLE SNOWFLAKES
To make these treats, I simply cut tortillas into flake shapes, bake and dust them with sugar. Snow never tasted so good! You can serve them on a plate or tie on strings and hang them as ornaments. -Denis Ann Bontrager, Goshen, Indiana

Tips:
- Choose the right butter. Unsalted butter is the best choice for this recipe, as it allows you to control the amount of salt in the finished product.
- Make sure the butter is cold. This will help the butter hold its shape and prevent it from melting too quickly.
- Work quickly. The butter will start to melt as you work with it, so it's important to work quickly to form the butter snowflakes.
- Be patient. It may take a few tries to get the butter snowflakes to look just right. Don't get discouraged if they don't turn out perfectly the first time.
- Use a sharp knife. This will help you to make clean, precise cuts.
- Serve the butter snowflakes immediately. They are best when they are fresh.

Butter snowflakes are a beautiful and delicious way to add a touch of elegance to your next party or gathering. They are also a great way to use up leftover butter.
