The directions seem rather easy. The hardest part is most likely making the face and head.
Start with four sticks of refrigerated (hard) butter. Two go on the bottom, one on top over the seam. Cut a square out of the fourth for the head. Mold the face, ears and nose. Take a toothpick and make circles to fluff the fur and use whatever pieces fall to the plate to use on the edges to keep the lamb round. Add two cloves for the eyes and a red ribbon and flag and you are all set!
Have a great Easter and enjoy this your family!
