How to Make Vanilla Horns
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of finely chopped almonds.
- Gradually add 3 cups of all-purpose flour, mixing until the dough comes together and can be handled. Add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to prevent stickiness.
- Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll out small portions of dough (approximately 1 1/2 - 2 teaspoons) into crescent moon shapes.
- Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheets.
- While still slightly warm, generously roll the cookies in powdered sugar.
- Store in an airtight container with a vanilla-soaked paper towel (placed in an open plastic baggie inside the container) to enhance the vanilla flavor.
