Vanilla puffs with powdered sugar are little clouds of delight with a subtle vanilla aroma and the gentle sweetness of powdered sugar. This recipe hails from Mexican cuisine, where it is considered a true treat, especially on warm family evenings. The puffs are quick to prepare: the dough made from sour cream and eggs becomes soft and airy thanks to baking soda and a splash of vodka, puffing up instantly while frying to achieve a golden hue. Their taste is crispy on the outside but soft and porous inside, perfectly complemented by the light sweetness of the powder. These puffs are often served with hot beverages – coffee or cocoa, making them an ideal choice for cozy gatherings or afternoon delights. Each bite is a combination of tenderness, aroma, and the warmth of home cooking.
