📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking or cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2
In a small or medium bowl, whisk together the flour, almond flour or ground almonds, and salt. Set aside.
3
Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until combined in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the vanilla and almond extracts. Mix in the dry ingredients until the dough is crumbly but sticks together when pressed.
4
Scoop out about 1 ½ tablespoons (medium-sized cookie scoop) of dough and roll it until smooth with your hands. To shape, roll the dough into a smooth ball, then into a log shape, and then shape into a crescent.
5
Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
6
Bake the cookies, one baking sheet at a time, for ⏱️ 15 minutes or until they brown around the edges and have spread slightly.
7
Let the cookies rest on the pan for ⏱️ 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Generously coat with powdered sugar.
