Vanillekipferl (German vanilla moon cookies)

By Lucia Lukas

When we lived in the UK, Luci used to make these and send them to us for Christmas. Now that we live in the US, we don't think they would get past customs so we learned how to make them ourselves!

150g Earth Balance salt-free vegan butter
50g Sugar
210g Flour
75g Ground almonds or hazelnuts
Powdered sugar
Vanilla
  • mix butter, sugar, flour, and nuts
  • put dough in fridge for 10 minutes
  • make a roll, cut pieces, form them into crescent moons
  • bake at 180 celsius for 8 minutes (check colour)
  • coat in mixture of powdered sugar and vanilla (vanilla flavored sugar is better because the vanilla is already mixed in, but you can also pour vanilla into powdered sugar and mix it together)
