Vanilla crescent cookies.
Another kind of Christmas cookie - tender, crumbly and delicious. To make vanilla crescents, you need almond flour or just ground almonds - you can buy them ready-made or make them yourself.
An almond flour cookie is a great way to make vanilla crescents.

Preparation of cookies "Vanilla crescents":
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients of the dough until smooth and homogeneous.

Allow the dough to form a ball, wrap in clingfilm and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Then shape the dough into crescent shapes. You can do this either with a month-shaped cookie mold, or you can roll out "sausages" with your hands, and then sharpen the tips and shape them into a crescent shape. I've done it both ways - there's no difference in flavor, so it's easy to choose who likes it better or who wants it quicker and more convenient.
Place the cookies on a baking tray lined with baking parchment and bake in a preheated 170-180 degree oven for about 20 minutes. The cookies should not brown, but should be done.
