1. Prepare the ingredients and mix peanuts, walnuts and almonds for nuts (can also be used Pecans, almonds, pistachios... can be substituted at will).

Other nuts can be bought ready-made in the supermarket. drop);

2. Be sure to weigh all the raw materials and prepare them in advance, because after you start cooking, you cannot leave the pot and you have to keep stirring, otherwise you are afraid of burning the pot. Mix the biscuits, mixed nuts, and dried cranberries together;

3. Cut the butter into small pieces and put it into a non-stick pan. Be sure to use a non-stick pan. Turn on low heat and stir the butter until it is completely Melt (when melting butter, if bubbles appear, it means the fire is too strong, you can turn off the heat and use the residual heat to continue melting the butter);

4. Pour the marshmallows into the melted butter, and keep Stir until the marshmallows are completely melted. Immediately turn off the heat and pour in the milk powder; if you like a harder texture, stir-fry for a while after the marshmallows are completely melted, then turn off the heat and stir evenly;

5. Then put the biscuits, Pour in the nuts and dried cranberry mixture together, just stir it up, then pour all the mixture into the gold plate, wear PVC gloves and knead evenly (you need to use both hands to knead the materials evenly), and let the sugar cover each piece as much as possible After the material is pressed, press it and press it flat;

6. Shape as quickly as possible, especially in winter, otherwise it will be difficult to shape after solidification. After shaping, quickly sift it with a flour sieve while it is still warm. Add a layer of milk powder on top, this is the effect of snowflakes, which can increase the flavor of milk and prevent sticking; turn it over and sprinkle a layer of milk powder on it;

Tips:

1. Do not use biscuits that are too crispy and break easily. They will turn into powder as soon as you knead them, which will affect the taste of the finished product;

2. If you are particularly afraid of sweets, it is recommended to use salty biscuits. You can buy salty ones for nuts, which can neutralize the sweetness. There are also marshmallows. You can use low-sugar ones, but it is said that low-sugar marshmallows are silky. If the effect is not good, you can also use sugar-free milk powder for milk powder. It is recommended not to reduce the number of biscuits, because this is the characteristic of Snowflake Crisp. The texture of Snowflake Crisp is brought by the biscuits;

3. Nuts in the formula You can change and adjust it at will according to your own taste;

4. Stirring is a laborious process, and you need to wear disposable gloves and knead thoroughly evenly;
