Directions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and vanilla sugar. Add the butter, sour cream, and egg. Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until you form a smooth dough.
-
Roll out the dough into a square shape. Mix the sugar and poppy seeds, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the dough. Fold the dough in half, roll it out again with a rolling pin, and repeat the process as needed. Shape the dough into a ball, then cut it into equal-sized pieces.
-
Arrange the pieces on a baking tray. Optionally, sprinkle additional powdered sugar or poppy seeds on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool before serving.
