How to Make North Croatian Vanilla Cookies Vanila Kifli
- Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar and 2 large egg yolks.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup of finely ground hazelnuts.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly until it comes together.
- Roll the dough into a long sausage, about 1 inch in diameter.
- Cut the sausage into 2-inch pieces.
- Shape each piece into a crescent moon, about the thickness of a little finger.
- Place the cookies onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on them as they burn easily.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
