  • 25 dag Wheat flour, white, multi-purpose

  • 10 dag Walnuts

  • 2 piece Egg, egg yolk, fresh

  • 7 dag Powdered sugar

Steps

  1. Cut the butter into pieces. Sift the flour into a larger bowl and crumble it with the butter pieces. Add the walnuts, egg yolk, and sugar, and quickly knead all the ingredients into a smooth, crumbly dough. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in foil, and place it in the refrigerator for one hour.

  2. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Thoroughly clean and lightly flour the work surface. Roll the dough into a long log and cut it into equal pieces with the blunt side of a knife, shaping them into crescents. Place them on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes until they turn golden brown.

  3. Let the baked crescents cool on the tray for at least 2 minutes. Mix the powdered sugar with vanilla sugar and place it in a separate bowl. Roll the baked crescents in the sugar mixture. Arrange them on a serving plate and serve.
