Mom's favorite cookies

My mother got this recipe from her long time friend and colleague, Grazinele. The recipe is easily 30 years old if not more, as I can remember my mother making these when I was really small. She usually formed the cookies by using a special add for the meat mincing machine, while her friend just rolled them out normally and cut out moon shapes. Either way, they are really easy to make, but that's a point really, sometimes simple things are the best. Kids and hubby definitely share that opinion about these, they hardly last til the next morning. For some variety there is a more chocolaty off-spin, when you add a spoon of cacao powder into the flour, or you can make them normally and then dip into molten chocolate.


Need
200 g of butter,
120 g of sour cream
3 cups of flour
1 egg,
0.5 cup of sugar

Knead everything together (butter can be either soft room temperature, or melted), cool of in a fridge for 15 min, roll out, cut the shapes.
Bake on 180C, for about 15 min (or untill the top is nice and brown.
