Instructions
-
Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the sweet unsalted butter and sugar together at high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 3-4 minutes.
-
-
Incorporate Egg and Vanilla: Gradually add the egg yolk and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until fully incorporated.
-
Mix in Almonds and Flour: Gently fold in the chopped almonds, followed by the all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
-
Shape the Cookies: Using your hands, take small portions of dough (about 1-inch pieces) and shape them into crescents.
-
Prepare for Baking: Arrange the crescents on ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for approximately 20 minutes or until the edges turn a light golden color.
-
Dust with Confectioners’ Sugar: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and, while they are still warm, coat them generously with confectioners’ sugar for that sweet finishing touch.
Enjoy these delicious Ukrainian Butter Horns with a cup of tea or coffee, and share the joy with your loved ones!
