German crescent cookies /vanillekipferl


 

Ingredients 

Plain flour - 120 gm/ 1 cup 

Ground almonds - 50 gm  

Salt - a pinch  

Softened butter (unsalted) - 115 gm / 1/2 cup 

Icing sugar - 40 gm  

Vanilla extract - 1 tsp 

Icing sugar - for dusting ( as required)


Method 

In a bowl mix flour, ground almond and salt.  

Sift it and keep it aside. 

Add softened butter, icing sugar  and vanilla extract to the flour and start kneading it until it all comes together into a soft dough. It will be dry and crumbly when you start kneading but keep kneading it and it will come together. 

Let the dough rest in the fridge for 30 minutes. 

After 30 minutes shape the dough into crescent and arrange it in a baking tray. You can make about 15- 18 cookies with this. 

Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 175 degree C for about 13-15 minutes. 

After 2 minutes give the cookies a first round of dusting with some icing sugar. It will melt into the cookies. 

Let the cookies cool down for some time and then give it another round of generous dusting with icing sugar. 

Enjoy the cookies!
