Cookies
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Self-rising flour is perfect for these cookies. If using self-rising flour, omit the baking soda and baking powder. To shape the cookies, simply roll a piece of dough between your palms into a ball. Place them apart from each other on the baking sheet, as they expand significantly during baking. Check for doneness with a toothpick—if it comes out dry when inserted into the cookie, they're ready. These cookies can be enjoyed either cooled or warm, and can be served with tea or coffee.

Add the sour cream and eggs, then knead the dough. Divide the dough into two equal parts. Add cocoa to one part and knead again until evenly colored. Place each part into a plastic bag and refrigerate for 1 hour.
