Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • cup sugar
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup jam or fruit preserves
  • 1 cup sugar powder

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl sift 2 cups of flour and mix it with active dry yeast. Cut 2 sticks of cold butter in small pieces and add it to the flour. You can use a fork or your hands to mix butter with the flour and yeast until it is crumbly.
  • In a separate bowl mix 1 cup of sour cream, sugar, 2 egg yolks and vanilla. Add it to the dry ingredients, and mix it again.
  • Add the rest of the flour and knead the dough until it is smooth and doesn’t stick to your hands.
  • Divide the dough into 6 even pieces and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate it for an hour.
  • When the dough is ready, take one ball and roll it to about 2-3 mm thick. Using a pizza cutter cut it in 12 equal pieces.
  • Put a little bit of jam on the outside edges of each piece and roll it in.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake Rogaliki for 15-20 min, until they have a beautiful gold color.
