[email protected]These vanilla walnut crescents were a complete disaster. The dough was impossible to work with and the crescents fell apart when I tried to bake them. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crescents turned out really dry. I think I may have overbaked them.
