Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg yolks
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup vanilla sugar
2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • Cream together the butter with the sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour.
  • Turn into a ball, cover and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • To form the crescents, roll about 1 Tbsp of the dough in the palms of your hands. Then continue rolling to form a rope about 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Bend rope to form crescent. Repeat with remaining dough, placing on ungreased cookie sheets about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes. Cookies should be white in color. Let cool on cookie sheets for 5 minutes to prevent breaking. Then, while cookies are still warm, carefully roll in vanilla sugar. (May be found in bulk food stores). Repeat with remaining cookies. Cool cookies completely.
  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler set over low heat. When cookies are cool, dip tips of each cookie in melted chocolate, then set on waxed paper to dry.
