Ingredients

560 g Flour

160 g Sugar

400 g Butter, (room temperature)

200 g Almond, Hazelnut or Peanuts finely grated

100 g Confection sugar

4 Pkt. Vanille sucker

Preparation

Mix Flour, Butter, Sugar and nuts. Mix with hand until it forms a dough. Put dough in refrigerator for 1 hour. Put oven to 375 F. Divide the dough into several parts. Make rolls that are approximately 0.5-1 inch thick. Cut the rolls into 1 inch pieces, and bend the pieces into the shape of a semicircle ( just like a croissant). Place the kipferl on a baking tray, and leave them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes. When done, remove kipferl carefully from the tray. While still warm, dip the kipferl in a mixture of confectioners’ sugar and vanilla sugar.
