Categories     Cookies     Dessert     Bake     Christmas

Yield 3 or 4 cookie tins

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup margarine and/or butter
(I use 1/2 c butter, 1/2 c. marg.)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
2 cups flour
3 tsp. ice water
4-6 cups of confectioners sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 F Cream margarine + sugar, add vanilla, then nuts; then with as few strokes as necessary, blend in flour; sprinkle on ice water - and then, if needed, add a bit more flour. Dough will be sticky but JUST able to be handled. Refrigerate until cold. Bake at for 35-40 minutes. Shape tsp. sized lumps of dough into tiny, even crescents (V- shapes, flying seagulls...) handling as briefly as possible. Place in lines on ungreased wax paper on cookie sheets - these cookies only rise slightly, so don't need much space between. Bake until light golden on bottom; then slip from cooky sheet to platter with sifted powdered sugar; roll cookies around (lightly with fingers is best) to absorb then cover w/ powdered sugar. Cool on waxed paper; store in tins.

These crescents were a bit too sweet for me, but my kids loved them.

These were a little dry for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try adding a bit more butter to the dough next time.

I've made these crescents a few times now and they always turn out great. They're the perfect pastry for breakfast or brunch.

These crescents were a bit more work than I expected, but they were worth it. They were absolutely delicious and everyone at the party raved about them.

I've tried this recipe twice now and both times they've turned out perfectly. The dough is so flaky and the filling is delicious. I highly recommend this recipe!

These Viennese Crescents were a hit at my last party! They were so easy to make and everyone loved them. I'll definitely be making them again.
