For the best flavor, use high-quality butter and almond flour. If the dough is too sticky to handle, add a tablespoon or two of all-purpose flour. The vanilla sugar can be made by combining granulated sugar with a vanilla bean in a sealed container for a few days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and sugar. (5 minutes)
02
StepAdd the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (10 minutes)
03
StepAdd the egg yolks to the bowl and mix until a smooth dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)
04
StepWrap the dough in plastic wrap and flatten it into a disk. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours. (60 minutes)
05
StepPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (10 minutes)
06
StepOn a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter or knife to cut out crescent shapes. (15 minutes)
07
StepPlace the crescent cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each cookie. (5 minutes)
08
StepBake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. (15 minutes)
09
StepWhile the cookies are still warm, gently roll them in vanilla sugar to coat. (5 minutes)
10
StepTransfer the vanilla-coated crescents to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with additional vanilla sugar before serving, if desired. (15 minutes)
