1/2 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
sifted powdered sugar |

2. Stir in the 1/4 cup sugar.
3. Make a well in the center.
4. Combine egg yolks and sour cream; add to flour mixture and stir until mixture forms a ball.
5. Divide dough in half, and keep one half of the dough tightly covered.
6. On a lightly floured surface, roll the other half of dough to 1/16 thickness, and cut into 4 rounds.
7. For filling, beat egg whites slightly.
