These cookies are light and buttery and remind me of the cookies you would find in a tin at Christmas time. Not only were they super delicious, but they are also really easy to make. Only four ingredients! There are a few steps involved, which is kind of annoying (I hate waiting!), but they are definitely worth it. Here's what you'll need:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup cold butter
1/2 cup sour cream
sugar (lots, just keep the canister out)
Place flour in a large bowl; cut in butter (I used a pastry blender) until mixture is crumbly. Stir in sour cream until completely blended. Place dough on a piece of plastic wrap and form into a square block. Wrap up the block in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Cut dough into four even sections, and working one section at a time (keep remaining sections refrigerated) place dough on a piece of wax paper sprinkled with sugar. Sprinkle dough with some sugar and place another piece of wax paper on top. Roll out dough in wax paper until you get a rectangle, adding sugar as needed. (Roughly 10-in x 5-in) Roll up each side lengthwise until you reach they meet in the middle. Wrap log in plastic wrap and refrigerate. Repeat with remaining 3 sections. Chill for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375-degrees. Unwrap dough and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Gently dip each side into sugar and place on a foil-lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 14 minutes, or until a light golden brown. Turn cookies over and bake an additional 5 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Enjoy the buttery goodness!
