How
To Make Cinnamon Twirl Cookies :
In
a large bowl, beat margarine and sour cream until blended. Add egg yolk; mix
well. Combine flour and salt; add to margarine mixture and mix well (dough will
be sticky). Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Preheat
oven to 350°. Divide dough into eighths. On a well floured surface, roll each
portion into a 10-in. circle. Cut each circle into 8 triangles. Combine the
walnuts, sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over each triangle.

parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until lightly browned, 20-22 minutes.
Remove to wire racks to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Store in an
airtight container.
