Citrus Crescents
- 1 cup vegan margarine (softened)
- 12 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon citrus juice (fresh squeezed is best)
- 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)
- 14 cup organic spelt flour
- 18 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons grated citrus peels (of your choice)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon grated citrus peel
- Preheat oven to 400'F.
- If you are using a dark or nonstick cookie sheet, heat the oven to 375'F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer beat the margarine, sugar and citrus juice on medium speed until well combined and smooth.
- Beat in the flour, salt and 2 teaspoons of the citrus peel.
- Shape the dough by level tablespoons into crescent shapes, about 2 inches long.
- On an ungreased cookie sheet place each crescent 1 inch apart.
- Bake 6 to 10 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
- Meanwhile in a small bowl, stir in 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoons citrus peel with a fork.
- Roll the warm cookies in the sugar mixture.
- Place on a cooling rack and roll in the sugar again.
- This recipe works at high altitudes with no changes.
- Note: Bake one sheet of cookies at a time and place on the middle oven rack.
- Bon Appetit!
