Sour cream and margarine cookies

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make cookies on sour cream and margarine? Prepare the products. I do not advise replacing margarine with butter — it is he who, due to the content of vegetable fats, will give the dough the desired puff structure. Plus margarine is cheaper.

2. Step 2:

   

   Put the margarine in a saucepan with a thick bottom and melt it on the stove over the lowest heat.

3. Step 3:

   

   Remove the saucepan from the stove and immediately pour sugar into the melted margarine. Mix it quickly — the sugar will almost completely dissolve in the warm mass. The amount of sugar, by the way, you can change depending on your taste. And be sure to add a pinch of salt to balance the taste.

4. Step 4:

   

   In a deep bowl, beat the egg. Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush. Lightly whisk it with a whisk.

5. Step 5:

   

   Pour margarine with sugar into a bowl to the egg, add sour cream. Mix everything until smooth. Pour in the soda, stir again.

6. Step 6:

   

   I did everything with a regular hand whisk, the mixer in this recipe is completely unnecessary.

7. Step 7:

   

   Start sifting the flour into the liquid part in portions, kneading the dough well after each addition. Here I have already stirred with a fork.

9. Step 8:

   

   When it becomes difficult to stir with a fork, start kneading with your hands. Be prepared for the fact that the flour may go more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus on the consistency of the dough — it should gather in a lump, stop sticking to your hands, but at the same time remain soft. It took me a little more flour. Wrap the finished dough in a bag and put it in the freezer for half an hour — the margarine will harden and it will become easier to work with it.

10. Step 9:

    

    After the prescribed time, take out the dough, cut it in half, put one half on the work surface, remove the other again, but in the refrigerator. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a 0.5 cm thick layer. I added a little flour so that it wouldn't stick.

11. Step 10:

    

    Use a cookie cutter to cut out cookies from the dough. If there are no molds, then just a glass. It will be even easier to cut the layer into lozenges.

12. Step 11:

    

    Cover the baking sheet with baking paper. Put the cookies on it. The remains of the dough are again blinded, rolled out and cut. I have the whole portion of half the dough just fit on one baking sheet.

13. Step 12:

    

    Bake cookies in the oven, preheated to 200 ° C, 10-15 minutes, focus on the features of your oven. It should be slightly gilded.

14. Step 13:

    

    The finished cookies can be sprinkled with powdered sugar. Serve with tea, cocoa, coffee or milk. It is very tasty in a warm form. Enjoy your meal!
