Prepare the dough:
In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and vanillin. Add the butter and mix until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the sour cream and egg yolk, and knead until the dough is smooth. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.

Prepare the filling:
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white until stiff peaks form. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar, and continue whisking until well combined. Gently fold in the crushed walnuts.

Assemble the rolls:
Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle. Spread the walnut filling evenly over the dough, then roll it up tightly into a log shape.

Slice and bake:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice the rolled dough into 1-2 cm thick pieces and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Serve:
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee!

Serving and storage tips:

Variations:

Add a glaze: Drizzle the rolls with a simple sugar glaze for added sweetness.

Fruit option: You can add some dried fruits, like raisins or cranberries, to the filling for a twist.
