Vanille Kipferl II image

The vanille kipferl originated in Austria, and they are also very popular in Switzerland and Germany. The kipferl become even yummier after 2 to 3 days...but only for those who can resist long enough. If desired, the two ends of the kipferl can be dipped in warm chocolate and then left to cool.

Time 1h25m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ⅛ cups all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
7 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
3 teaspoons vanilla sugar
1 ¼ cups ground almonds
6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla sugar

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the size of small peas and mix in with your hands.
  • Mix 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, the egg, 3 teaspoons of vanilla sugar, and ground almonds into the flour mixture. Place the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Divide the dough into several parts. Roll each section of dough into logs approximately 1/2 inch thick. Cut the logs into 1-inch pieces, and bend the pieces into a crescent shape (just like a croissant). Place the kipferl on the baking sheet and chill them for 15 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Combine 6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla sugar and toss to mix.
  • While still warm, carefully remove kipferl from the baking sheet and dip them in sugar to coat.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out too dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still pretty good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of vanilla, but these cookies were still really good. The dough is so light and flaky, and the powdered sugar coating adds a nice touch of sweetness.

These cookies are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort. They're so light and flaky, and the vanilla flavor is perfect. I'll definitely be making these again!
