Ingredients

• 226 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 100 grams Ground almonds
• 50 grams Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, using a hand or stand mixer.

Step 3

Add the vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and ground almonds.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

Step 6

Lightly flour your work surface, then take small portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll into a small log shape, about 6 cm (2.5 inches) long.

Step 7

Curve each log into a crescent shape and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Step 10

Once completely cooled, lightly dust the Kiflins with powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
