Hungarian Kifli Cookies🇭🇺

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Cream butter and sugar:
   In a large bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract.
2. Add dry ingredients:
   Stir in flour, salt, and ground walnuts. Mix until the dough holds together (it’ll be soft and slightly crumbly but moldable).
3. Chill the dough:
   Wrap and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes until firm.
4. Shape the cookies:
   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
   Roll small pieces of dough into ropes about 2–3 inches long and curve into a crescent (“kifli”) shape. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
5. Bake:
   Bake for 12–15 minutes or until lightly golden on the edges (do not overbake!).
6. Dust with sugar:
   While warm, gently roll cookies in powdered sugar mixed with vanilla sugar. Let cool completely.

📝 Tips:

• You can use ground almonds or hazelnuts for variety.
• Store in an airtight container. Even better the next day!
