How to cook deliciously - Crescents

1 . Stage

If using butter it must be cold. Mix butter with flour until it resembles fine crumbs. Add white sugar, nuts, and salt. Mix well, adding ice water till you make stiff dough.

2 . Stage

Add vanilla extract and knead lightly. Roll out on floured board 1/4 inch thick.

3 . Stage

Cut into crescent shapes using a whiskey glass coated with flour.

4 . Stage

Bake at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) until bottoms are lightly browned. While hot, roll in confectioner's sugar, (I usually use a brown bag or baggie bag to roll the cookies in with the powdered sugar).
