Directions
-
In a bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 2 tbsp sugar, vanilla, and salt until well combined. Add butter and kefir (or yogurt) and mix thoroughly. Stir in baking powder and gradually add flour (300-320 g), mixing until a soft dough forms. If needed, add a little more flour and knead gently until the dough is smooth and soft.
-
Divide the dough into 20 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Roll out each ball into a thin oval shape. Make small cuts along one side of the dough. Sprinkle 1 tsp sugar over the cut side. Roll the dough into a log, starting from the uncut side. Place the rolled cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
