I always prefer to buy Butter murukku whenever I visit Grand sweets or Krishna Sweets. The taste of butter murukku is yummy and a bite of it makes us to have more. It is as simple to make it in home too. With the store bought rice flour, we can make this crispy snack in just few minutes.  No hassle of soaking and grinding. Addition of Butter helps to get a crunchy snack but at the same time it helps to melt in our mouth.  We should cook this in a low to medium flame to get the crunchy texture.
You can also refer other easy and quick Diwali Snacks for other snack varieties.
