Method

Steps to cook

6 steps · 7 min cook

  1. Prepare the ingredients. Prepare all ingredients and take the butter out of the fridge to soften 🍪✨

  2. Crush the almonds. Crush the almonds finely in a bag or blend them in a food processor.

  3. Make the dough. Combine the ground almonds, flour, powdered sugar (reserve some for the end), and softened butter and knead into a smooth dough. If the butter didn't fully soften and you partially melted it, the dough may be slightly sticky. Then chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  4. Shape the crescents and bake. Take small pieces of dough and shape them into crescents by hand (or use a mold). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 175 °C for about 5–8 minutes, until they begin to lightly brown on the bottom. Check them while baking, as they can burn quickly and will continue to cook slightly after removal.

  5. Dust with powdered sugar. Dust the finished crescents with powdered sugar.

  6. Serve. Serve 🍽️✨Serve and hide them from the other family members so you have some left for Christmas
