1 tsp baking soda

Sift flours, sugar, baking powder, soda and salt into a bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir together sour cream and eggs in a separate bowl. Slowly mix wet ingredients into dry. The dough should be a soft elastic consistency.
Knead dough together on a floured board for a minute then roll out or pat out into a 1-inch thick circle or square. Using a 2-inch cutter, cut out rounds or cut into squares. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until a pale gold.
