CARDAMOM BUTTER CRESCENTS
The egg whites in the batter keep these buttery shortbread-like cookies crumbly and light (and provide a place for all those spare egg whites you accumulate during holiday baking). The cardamom flavor is pronounced, so use the freshest cardamom you can find. These are also perfect for gift-giving, since they'll keep practically forever, or at least 3 weeks stored airtight at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, add the flour, cardamom and salt, and whisk to combine.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar on low speed until just combined. Add egg whites, beat until just combined, then add flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Divide dough into 8 equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll one piece out into a log 3/4-inch thick. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, cut 3-inch pieces off the log. Working with one 3-inch piece at a time, gently roll both ends so they taper slightly, then form into a crescent. Transfer to prepared baking sheet; repeat with remaining dough, placing the crescents 1-inch apart.
- Gently press 1 almond slice into each cookie. Bake until light golden brown, 10 to 14 minutes. Cool, then dust with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Spread the walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake on the lower rack until toasted, 10 to 12 minutes; let cool completely. Pulse the nuts in a food processor until finely ground. Add the flour and pulse to combine; set aside.
- Beat the butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 4 minutes. Add 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, the vanilla, cardamom and salt; beat until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the walnut-flour mixture until just incorporated. Cover the dough and refrigerate until slightly firm, about 30 minutes.
- Place the remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar in a shallow bowl; set aside. Shape tablespoonfuls of dough into thin crescents and arrange 1 inch apart on 2 unlined baking sheets.
- Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are golden on the bottom, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the pans, then carefully transfer to the bowl of confectioners? sugar and gently roll to coat. Transfer to a rack to cool completely, then reroll in the confectioners? sugar.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Combine all dough ingredients in a food processor. Pulse until the dough resembles coarse meal. Then process continuously until it begins to gather together.
- Roll 2 teaspoons dough at a time into half moon shapes. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet, 1 inch apart. Bake until firm to touch, about 18 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the vanilla sugar ingredients in a food processor until the vanilla bean is pulverized.
- When cookies are done, let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack. Sift the vanilla sugar over them immediately. Continue cooling for 15 minutes. The cookies may be stored in an airtight container up to 5 days.

VIENNESE CRESCENTS
This recipe came from one of my earliest pastry assistants, Sandra, when we baked together at the Strathallan Hotel in Rochester, New York. We used to put them on cookie/petits four platters because they froze well. You can also dip them in chocolate, omitting the confectioners' sugar at the end.

Steps:
- Cream the butter and add the sugar and vanilla and beat to fluffy. Add the flour and nuts and mix in. Chill the dough for at least one hour. The more it's chilled the less it spreads during baking.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Shape the dough into tiny crescents using 1 teaspoon of dough for each cookie. Place them on an ungreased sheet pan in rows, leaving 1 inch in between for spreading and bake until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes.
- Let cool 5 minutes. Dredge them in confectioners' sugar.

- Add the walnut halves to a mixer and mix until you get fine crumbs (but not a puree). Set aside.
- Add the butter, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla extract to a large bowl and mix until light and fluffy. Mix the flour with ground cardamom, cinnamon, and salt, then add to the bowl and mix until just combined. Add the ground walnuts and mix in. Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and shape into a log, wrap tightly and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour (or overnight).
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside. Take the roll of dough out of the fridge, cut it into thin slices and shape those slices into crescents (first, roll them into small sausages and bend them into the crescent shape) – place the rest of the dough back in the fridge. Place the crescents with some space in between on the baking sheet and bake for 10-11 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down a bit on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack and dust the still warm crescents with confectioners’ sugar. Let cool down completely. Repeat with the remaining dough. The crescents/kipferl should be stored separately from other cookies in a tin box and should be eaten within 4-5 weeks.
