Vanilla And Walnut Crescent Cookies

• 2 3/4 cups plain flour
• 1 1/8 cups unsalted butter or Margarine
• 7/8 cup icing sugar
• 1 1/16 cups ground walnuts
• 2 vanilla
• 2 icing sugar

1. Sift plain flour & icing sugar in a large bowl. Add ground walnuts. Grate in the soften butter (it will be easier to form the dough) and using your hand form a dough.
2. Put the dough in a plastic bag and place it in a fridge for 30 - 45 minutes.
3. Mix the extra icing sugar with vanilla flavoured sugar and set aside for later.
4. 30-45 minutes later:
5. Take only a small amount of the dough out from the fridge. Roll it into a sausage (not too thick or too thin - max 1.5cm in diameter). Cut the sausage into 10-12 cm long pieces.
6. Take one piece using both hands and form a U shape. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
7. Make sure there is enough space between them (about 1.5 cm) so they won't stick to each other while baking.
8. Bake at 200 u0b0C for 8 -10 minutes.
9. Take out from the oven and let them cool completely before removing them from the tray.
