2 cups of powdered milk
1 1/2 cup of butter
2 cups of sugar
4 cups of flour

Materials:
Polvoron pressers

I a shallow pan, over medium heat, pour in your flour and stir until it is toasted or light brown.

Melt the butter in the microwave or in a saucepan.

Pour the flour in a bowl and add the 2 cups of powdered milk, 2 cups of sugar and 1 1/2 cup of butter. Mix it well.

Take your Polvoron pressers, these are available in department stores and cooking shops, and fill it with your mixture. Compact the mixture into the presser using a spoon, you don’t want your Polvoron to crumble easily.
