Hungarian Kifli
Yield:  24 cookies

2 C flour
1/2 lb butter (do not substitute)
1 egg
3/4 C sour cream
1/3 c sugar
2 tsp cinnamon, or more to taste
1/3 c chopped walnuts

Cream butter and flour, stir in egg and sour cream. Form into a ball and refrigerate 3 hours.

Divide dough in thirds, Roll into a circle about 1/4 to 1/8 in thick. (too thin and the nuts will tear it, too thick and its too doughy, experiment a bit)

Combine sugar, cinnamon and nuts, spread over dough. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut into 8 wedges. Roll up starting at wide end (to resemble crescents).

Repeat twice with remaining dough following same procedure above. Bake on an ungreased sheet for 20 minutes at 375. You can sprinkle with powdered sugar when they are cool if you like

Random Thought - It is what it is unless it isn't then it ain't because its not
