Personal Notes:
If you use the packaged crawfish tails, you can just rinse them and add as directed if you want to eliminate some of the butter. This is a recipe that one of the members of the West Baton Rouge Parish Garden Club uses for our annual Christmas Tea and is loved by everyone. It originally comes from another cookbook and was submitted by Mrs. Lyttleton T. Harris.
