Christmas is the only time our Mom makes these cookies and they are ALWAYS worth the wait!
 Dough:
 3 eggs slightly beaten
 3/4 lb margarine
 3/4 lb butter
 1/2 lb sour cream
 pinch of salt
 1 pkg yeast
 1 1/2 c sugar
 2 tsp baking powder
 7 c flour
 dissolve yeast in sour cream - add rest of  ingredients
 refrigerate at least 1 hr 
 roll into powdered sugar
 Filling
 1 stiff egg white
 1/2 tsp vanilla 
 1 1/4 c sugar
 1/2 lb graham crackers-crushed
 1 lb walnut pieces, crushed
 enough milk to moisten
 Mom would cut the dough with a round  measuring 1 cup (metal w/ handle type)
 take a tablespoon or so of the filling and  place in the dough, pinch and shape into a horse shoe
 bake at 350 for 14-16 mins
 sprinkle with powder sugar
