Butter Crescent Cookies
Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup vanilla sugar, or as needed
Instructions
1
Combine all-purpose flour, almond flour, and sugar in a bowl; use your fingertips to break down the butter into small pieces until you achieve a coarse, crumbly texture.
2
Add egg yolks and mix the ingredients together until they form a smooth, cohesive dough. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
3
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), which is equivalent to medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, creating a non-stick surface for the dough.
4
Transfer the chilled dough onto a lightly floured work surface, and use your hands to shape it into long, thin strips. Cut the dough into 2-inch pieces and use your fingers to shape each piece into a crescent-like shape.
5
Place the shaped dough pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each crescent to allow for even baking.
6
Bake the dough in the preheated oven until it is lightly golden, taking between 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the crescents from the oven and immediately roll them in vanilla sugar while still warm, allowing the flavors to infuse.
