Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 vanilla bean, grated
2 3/4 cups sifted cake flour
2/3 cup ground blanched almonds
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup cold water

Directions:

Combine powdered sugar and vanilla bean, stirring well. Cover and let stand 24 hours.
Combine flour, almonds, sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium mixing bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, evenly over surface; stir with a fork until dry ingredients are moistened. Shape dough into a ball; chill at least 45 minutes.
Divide dough into 1-inch balls; shape each ball into a crescent-shaped cookie. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on wire racks. Roll cookies in reserved powdered sugar mixture.
