Zubereitung

1
Whisk the flour, ground almonds, granulated sugar, and salt in a medium bowl until evenly combined and no clumps remain.
2
Mix the softened butter and vanilla extract in a separate large bowl until smooth and creamy. Add the dry mixture in two additions and mix just until a soft dough forms; do not overwork it.
3
Divide the dough into two logs, wrap, and rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, until firm but still easy to shape. Heat the oven to 175°C and line two baking sheets with parchment.
4
Divide the chilled dough into portions of about 14 g each, roll each portion into a short rope with tapered ends, and bend it into a crescent. Place the crescents 3 cm apart on the prepared sheets.

5
Bake one sheet at a time for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating once, until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain pale. Do not let the bottoms become dark.

6
Cool the cookies on the sheets for 3 minutes. Combine the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar, then gently coat the warm crescents and transfer them to a rack to cool completely before storing.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

Almonds add richness and a delicate sandy texture, while a short chill keeps the butter-based dough firm enough to shape into defined crescents. Rolling the warm cookies in vanilla sugar helps the coating adhere without melting into the crumb.
