Directions

  1. Beat butter and white sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add egg yolks to creamed butter mixture and beat until smooth. Mix flour and almonds together in a separate bowl, slowly stir into creamed butter mixture, kneading the dough toward the end until smooth. Place dough in an airtight container and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.

  2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  3. Roll small pieces of dough into balls. Carefully roll each ball into a 2 1/2-inch rope, form into a crescent shape and place on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheet for 3 minutes.

  5. Spread vanilla sugar into a shallow dish or pie plate. Lift cookies from baking sheet using a spatula and turn them, top-side down, into the vanilla sugar. Cool cookies completely on a wire rack.
