Category: Bread
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold butter, cubed
1 egg, separated
2/3 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon Spice IslandsĀ® pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup finely chopped walnuts
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk, sour cream and vanilla; add to crumb mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

Divide dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 10-in. circle. Combine the walnuts, sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle 1/4 cup over each circle. Cut each circle into 12 wedges.

Roll up each wedge from the wide end and place point side down 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends to form crescents. Whisk egg white until foamy; brush over crescents. Sprinkle with remaining nut mixture. Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 3 dozen.
