Hungarian Filled Cookies

Place the butter, lard, flour, and salt in a bowl and mix until crumbly. Stir in the egg yolk and sour cream. Wrap the dough in foil and chill overnight. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 0.5 cm. Cut out circles (about 5 cm). Place 1/2 teaspoon of jelly in the center of each circle and fold the circles together. Press the edges together. Place the cookies on a baking sheet, spaced 5-7 cm apart. To brush, whisk together the egg yolk and milk. Brush the mixture over the cookies. Bake the cookies on the middle rack for 10-12 minutes, then let cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
