NORWEGIAN SOUR CREAM COOKIES RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Mix together your wet ingredients (butter, sugar, egg, sour cream and vanilla) until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Drop rounded spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Dip the bottom of a small glass into your bowl of cookie dough or smear a little dough on the glass. Dip the glass into cinnamon sugar. With the glass coated in sugar, lightly tap down each ball of dough on the sheet leaving a dusting of cinnamon sugar on the cookie. Continue with remaining dough. I sometimes use a spoon and sprinkle just a little more cinnamon sugar on each one as well. Bake for 10 minutes in a 400 degree fahrenheit oven.

KRINGLA II

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the heavy cream and sour cream. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Let the sour cream mixture come to room temperature. It should take about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix the sugar, shortening, and egg yolk together using an electric mixer. Stir the vanilla and baking soda into the sour cream mixture. Stir the sour cream mixture into the bowl with the sugar and shortening until well blended. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter until fully incorporated.
• Place the dough on a well-floured surface, as the dough will be sticky. Use ping pong ball sized pieces of dough, and roll out into an 8 or 9 inch rope. Form into a 'lazy eight' or 'infinity sign', and pinch the ends together. Place on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven, or until slightly brown. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Store at room temperature for up to 5 days, or 1 month in the freezer.
