   How to make a barmak? Prepare all the products. Take sour cream is not liquid, flour is of the highest grade, wheat. Melt the butter in a water bath or in a microwave oven and cool it. In a bowl with butter, add sour cream, salt. Mix it up. Pour in the sifted flour.

   Knead the elastic dough. Please note that you may take more or less flour than I do. Be guided by the consistency of the dough. The dough should not stick to your hands, but it should not be steep.

3. Step 3:

   

   Prepare the filling for the cookies. Chop the walnuts in a blender or coffee grinder, transfer to a bowl. You can just chop the nuts with a knife, but as finely as possible. Add sugar and softened (but not melted) and sliced butter to the nuts. Grind the filling into crumbs. To simplify the process, you can melt the butter and mix it with sugar - then the sugar will melt a little.

4. Step 4:

   

   Form a sausage from the dough. Cut it into small pieces, about 20 grams each. Roll each piece into a ball, and then roll out into cakes like dumplings.

   Put a little filling in the middle of each tortilla. Then form a mini roll.

   Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Grease the baking sheet with oil. Put cookies on it. Bake it in the oven for about 30 minutes. Determine the exact time and temperature of baking according to your oven. Take out the cookies when they are slightly browned. Overexpose the barmac in the oven is impossible, otherwise when it cools down, it will be solid.

   Remove the cookies from the baking tray, transfer to a dish, sprinkle with powdered sugar. If desired, you can sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve the barmak with tea, coffee or milk. It is better to store such a delicacy in a closed container, covered with foil, so that it does not become hard. Have a nice tea party!
