Default French Pastry ??? I am new to this group so forgive if I do something wrong.

1/2 lb. margarine
2 cups flour
1 cup sour cream
3/4 cups sugar
3/4 cup chopped nuts, chopped fine
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 recipe powdered sugar icing
Instructions:
Cut margarine into flour with pastry blender until crumbly.
Stir in sour cream with fork, blend well. Divide dough into 4 parts, chill
for 3 hours or longer. Roll each part on lightly floured surface into 8" or
9" rounds. Sprinkle with sugar, nuts, & cinnamon. Cut into 12 or 16 wedges.
Roll up, starting with wide ends. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake @
375* for 20 minutes. Spread with glaze immediately.
Does anyone know if any thing is missing from this recipe? I
received it from my cousin after tasting them at our family reunion.. Her's
were light, buttery, & very flaky. Mine are not. They get sort of soft after
I put glaze on. Any one have any recipe similar to this? They are small (
about 2 1/2 in. ) and they look like small miniature crescents, but taste
like cinnamon rolls only much better. Sure would like to know what I am
doing wrong or if she left something out by mistake.
