  Step 1

  We collect products according to the list. If necessary, we replace something, supplement it.

  Step 2

  Using a blender, mix sour cream with regular (1 tablespoon) and vanilla sugar, egg white until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Set aside the yolk for now.

  In a separate bowl, first combine two-thirds of all flour with salt and baking powder. Then we put the softened butter into the dry mixture and grind it with our hands or with a fork into crumbs.

  Step 4

  Mix the resulting crumb with sour cream and knead the dough very quickly. Add the remaining flour only if necessary. Keep in mind, the denser the dough, the tougher the cookies will turn out.

  Step 5

  We form a ball of dough, wrap it in a bag or just cover it with a bowl. We send it to the fridge for 45 minutes. By the way, you can leave the dough there for up to two or three days.

  Step 6

  From the dough we form blanks in the form of small cakes 0.5 cm thick. You can roll the dough into a layer and cut it into squares, rectangles or rhombuses, or use special cookie cutters. We put them on a baking sheet.
