Actually it's very interesting. So I make it a lot. Wheat isn't a
problem for me so I don't understand that end of it. I'm wondering if
maybe you could replace half the flour with it? I don't understand
the properties of each but I'd be willing to try it.

So I just put 2 sticks of butter in a bowl to soften. You bad OM!! I
didn't plan on this today. I have the masa and everything else so
it's worth a try unless you or someone else tells me it won't work.
The KA is at the cottage to I'll have to use the hand mixer but it
should be fine.

I'll report back with pictures. (maybe)

OH! Rolling the logs is easiest by rough forming them in a buttered
baking dish and rocking it back and forth.
