Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, cold
• ¹⁄₂ cup Sour cream
• 2 large Egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a separate bowl, mix together the sour cream, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and stir until a dough forms.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times until it comes together.
6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Sprinkle the cinnamon evenly over the dough.
8. Starting from one long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log.
9. Cut the log into 1-inch wide strips and twist each strip.
10. Place the twists onto the prepared baking sheet.
11. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
12. Allow the twists to cool slightly, then dust them with powdered sugar.
13. Serve and enjoy!
