Flour Tortillas

INGREDIENTS 

4 1/2 c. Flour
3 tsp. Salt
1 1/2 T. Baking Powder
3/4 c. Unsalted Butter
1 1/2 c. Water
Extra flour for rolling tortillas

DIRECTIONS

Combine flour, salt and baking powder in a medium sized bowl. In a separate bowl warm butter and water in microwave until melted. Add butter/water to flour mixture and stir. Knead dough with your hands for several minutes until dough is well combined. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes. Separate dough into approximately 17 equal sized dough pieces and shape into balls. Place dough balls back in bowl and cover for another 15 minutes. Roll dough balls separately out on a lightly floured surface until approximately 10-12 inches round. Cook each side in a skillet on medium heat until lightly browned.
