Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Mix together butter, egg yolk, powdered sugar and vanilla bean seeds. Add ground almonds, flour, salt and vanilla powder. Place dough in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to cool.

Roll small crescents (they extend a bit) and lightly flatten. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden.

Mix sugar and vanilla powder together on a plate or bowl. Roll the warm cookies around in the vanilla sugar mixture. Store in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
