This recipe comes from my sister Mary. She is an excellent cook! One of my favorite dishes she makes is, String Bean Soup! Sure wished you lived closer Mary! All photo credits go to Jennifer!
Crescent Cookies
Ingredients for dough:
3 cups sifted flour
1 package of yeast
2 sticks of butter
3 beaten egg yolks
1 cup sour cream
Ingredients for sugar mixture:
1 cup sugar
1 cup of chopped walnuts
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Directions:
Sift flour and yeast together
Mix in two sticks of butter
Add beaten egg yolks
Add 1 cup of sour cream and continue to mix until it forms a dough
Roll into a long log shape and slice into 8 pieces.
Shape each piece into a ball and store on a flowered plate.
Refrigerate for 1 hour at least. If longer cover.
Put about 3 tab of the sugar mixture on a board (not flour)
Place ball of dough on top of the sugar mixture and begin to roll into a circle.
Flip it over so it doesn't stick.
Continue to roll into a thin pizza shape.
Use a pizza cutter and cut into 8 pieces.
Use one slice of pizza starting at the larger side and roll it up into a crescent.
Two balls of dough should fit on one cookie sheet. (use a stone baking sheet, they cook so much better)
Bake 350 for approximately 15 minutes. If you like them lighter take out earlier.
Cool completely on a rack and store in a airtight container.
