Method
Dough: Place flour in large bowl. Blend in butter until mixture resembles course crumbs. Add egg yolks and sour cream. Stir until combined. Turn out on a floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and can be shaped into a ball. If too sticky, knead in more flour. Filling: Put nuts into blender and blend until very fine. Add sugar, milk, and almond extract, and then blend well. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out dough until about 1/8 to about 1/4 inch thick. With pastry wheel, or pizza cutter, cut into 1 1/2 inch squares. Place 1/2 teaspoon filling into center of each square. Roll dough over filling diagonally and form into a crescent shape. Place onto greased cookie sheet and brush with beaten egg whites. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Roll in powdered sugar.
