This recipe makes very tender, airy cookies that literally melt in your mouth. The ingredients and preparation are as simple as possible. The cookies stay fresh and airy for a long time. I highly recommend making cookies with this recipe.

sour cream cookies

Compost:

  • homemade sour cream (fat) – 0,5 liters
  • .
  • salt – a pinch
  • leavening agent or baking soda, quenched with vinegar – 2 tsp.
  • sugar or powdered sugar – 0,5 tbsp.
  • vanilla sugar – 1 sachet
  • flour – as much as the dough will take

Cooking:

For making these cookies, it is recommended to use homemade full-fat sour cream rather than store-bought sour cream, as store-bought sour cream can make the cookies dry.
Mix the sour cream well with salt, vanilla sugar and baking powder (or baking soda with vinegar). Gradually add flour to knead a soft, smooth dough. The amount of flour will depend on the fat content and consistency of the sour cream. Once the dough is soft and no longer sticky, roll it into a lump, cover with clingfilm and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes.

After that, divide the dough into 2 parts. Roll one part into a layer about 0.8-1 cm thick and use any mold to cut out cookies from the dough. Do the same with the second part of the dough.

Place the cookies on a baking tray, sprinkle sugar on top of each cookie and bake at 180 degrees until browned for about 15-20 minutes.
The finished cookies can also be sprinkled with powdered sugar if desired.
