Sand cookies with kefir are a cozy treat from European cuisine. They combine the tenderness of shortcrust pastry with the light sourness of kefir, creating an amazingly airy texture. The recipe's origins are linked to home baking when housewives sought ways to make cookies softer and more aromatic. Kefir makes the dough pliable and rich, while vanilla extract adds a pleasant sweet aroma. Sand cookies pair perfectly with tea or coffee, creating an atmosphere of warmth and comfort. They are especially popular for family gatherings and festive tea parties. The delicate golden layers are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, providing true pleasure. This baking requires no complex ingredients but always delights with its simple yet exquisite taste.
