3. Alternate adding flour and milk mixtures to the butter, beating well with each addition.
4. Bring the water to a boil and drop the batter in 1/2 tsp at a time.
5. Wet the spoon each time you do a new one so it'll slip off easily.
6. Cook a few at a time uncovered for 4-5 minutes.

8. Lift the cooked nockerln from the pot with a slotted spoon and keep warm while the rest are being cooked.
