Homemade vanilla cookies with sour cream and cherries

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake HOMEMADE VANILLA COOKIES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHERRY? Prepare all the ingredients needed to make the cookies. If you use frozen cherries, you must first defrost them and drain off the excess cherry juice.

2. STEP 2

   

   Beat the egg with sugar, vanilla sugar and a pinch of salt until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add sour cream and soft butter. Beat until smooth, using a mixer.

3. STEP 3

   

   Sift flour with baking powder into a separate bowl.

4. STEP 4

   

   Combine the liquid and dry ingredients of the dough and mix until smooth; the dough should not be thick, but not too liquid, it should slightly stick to your hands.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the cherries, dry them, remove the seeds and drain the cherry juice. Gently fold the cherries into the batter. If using frozen cherries, roll them in flour. This will prevent excess juice from escaping while baking the cookies.

6. STEP 6

   

   Line a baking tray with baking paper and grease with vegetable oil. With hands dipped in water, form medium-sized balls, place them on a baking sheet and press lightly on top. Try to place the cookies on the baking sheet so that there is space between them. It’s better to make 12 medium-sized cookies (I got 10). Bake cookies in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes until lightly browned.

7. STEP 7

   

   Let the finished cookies cool on the baking sheet and serve with tea. Homemade cookies with sour cream and cherries are ready! Bon appetit!
