1. In a small saucepan or in 5-second bursts in the microwave, heat your milk until it reaches about 40°C (102°F). Pour into a small bowl and whisk in the yeast until it dissolves. Set aside for 5-10 minutes until it is fragrant and lightly foamy.
2. After the yeast has bloomed, add your sour cream, sugar and egg and whisk together until combined. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the butter and, using your fingertips, coat the butter in the flour and squeeze the butter pieces until they reach about a pea-size.
4. Make a well in the flour and butter mixture and pour in your yeast, milk and sour cream mixture. Using a wooden spoon or a silicone spatula, mix it together until well combined and the flour is completely incorporated -- it will be slightly sticky.

1. The dough needs to be made the day or night before you assemble and bake your gata. Start by adding the baking soda and baking powder to the sour cream and mix it until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
2. The following day, make the filling. Add the flour and butter to the bowl of a food processor and pulse the mixture several times until it looks sandy and contains small pea-sized bits of butter. Add the sugar and vanilla and quickly pulse just a few more times to combine, but not enough to form a dough. Pour this crumbly filling into a wide, flat bowl and use a large spoon to divide it into four quadrants (just draw lines). Set aside.
3. Preheat the oven to 350°F with the oven rack in the center. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
4. Bake the gata one tray at a time for about 25 to 35 minutes, rotating the pan from front to back about halfway through baking, until the tops are dark golden brown, and the dough on the sides is no longer pasty looking, and appears to be cooked through (it may even start to look slightly golden). Remove from the oven and replace with the next pan of gata. Repeat the baking process until all pans are baked, one at a time.
