Steps for the Vanillekipferl
To make these delicious vanillekipferl, place the cold cubed butter, both flours, powdered sugar, pinch of salt, and vanilla essence into the bowl of a stand mixer. Attach the paddle (K) beater and mix at medium speed (1-2) for a few minutes. Finally, add the eggs and mix for a few more minutes at speed 3. Form a dough ball and refrigerate for about an hour. Naturally, you can also make this dough by hand on a work surface or use any kitchen robot. Take the dough from the fridge and shape it into crescents or horns on a work surface. Place the cookies spaced apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat the static oven to 340°F (170°C). Bake the cookies at 340°F for about 15 minutes.
While still warm, dust the cookies with vanilla powdered sugar and let them cool completely. Serve the vanillekipferl on a serving dish. I hope you enjoy my latest recipe; see you next time, friends.
