These angel wing cookies, aka Polish "chrusciki", are the perfect combination of crunchy, airy, and sweet. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Set the mixture aside. In another bowl, whisk the eggs together with the milk and sour cream. Next, combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients.
In Poland, chrusciki are popular at Carnival time. You’ll also find them served at Christmas or some Polish weddings. Prepare the dough with flour, sour cream, egg yolks, salt, sugar, and alcohol/vinegar. Add air into the dough by forming it into a ball and throwing it on a flat surface for some time. See the video below for more info.
Chrusciki are traditional Polish cookies that are light and crispy. Made since Medieval times, these angel wing cookies were made for Tłusty Czwartek or Fat Thursday. Catholics fasted during the season of Lent and only ate veg and fish. Tradition required the people to finish all the food ingredients that couldn’t be eaten during the Lenten period.
The best way I could describe their taste is similar to”fried dough” but crispy and flaky. In the United States they are commonly called Angel Wings. In Polish, Chrusciki is derived from the word “Chrust” which means ‘dry branches broken off a tree or brushwood”.
