Method

  1. Combine the flour, almonds, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the butter and vanilla; gently rub the butter into the flour mixture. The result should look like breadcrumbs.

  3. Gently knead until the mixture is a soft ball.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  5. Take heaped teaspoons of the mixture and shape into crescents. Place onto 2 baking trays, leaving some space between the cookies.
  6. Place the trays on shelf levels 2 and 4 and bake on Fan Plus at 160°C for 12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  7. Cool to room temperature and generously dust in extra icing sugar.
