Discover the wonder of this miraculous pastry – a true lifesaver in the kitchen!
Preparing it is a breeze, perhaps even 10 minutes is too long…
And the result? Simply incredible – soft yet crispy, flaky, and delicious.
No need for layering, rolling, or intricate maneuvers.

Ingredients:
- 200 g (7 oz) Margarine (at room temperature)
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 100 ml (3.4 fl oz) Sour Cream (or yogurt, buttermilk)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 500 g (17.6 oz) Flour
Instructions:
- In the flour, add margarine or butter, you can take 100 g (3.5 oz) of each.
- Turn everything into crumbs; this is done fairly quickly, with your hands.
- Then add the egg yolk and sour cream, or yogurt, whichever you have.
- Knead the dough. If the dough is sticky, add more flour.
- Chill in the refrigerator. Our dough is ready.
- Now you can make cookies, pies, whatever you like.
Let’s make the most delicious cookies together. The ones that melt in your mouth, with a caramelized crust that crunches so pleasantly…
- Simply cut off a piece of dough and roll it out.
- Using a pizza cutter, cut into triangles and diamonds.
- Thinner cuts will result in fewer layers, while thicker ones will yield more layers.
- Separately, put the remaining egg white from the dough in a bowl and about a cup of sugar in another bowl.
- Sprinkle a baking sheet with flour and dip each triangle in the egg white, then in the sugar, with the dry side down, place them on the baking sheet so the sugar is on top.
- From this amount of dough, you’ll get 4 baking sheets of cookies.
- Bake until golden brown at 180°C (356°F).
- Enjoy these delicious crunchy treats!
Bon appétit!
