Christmas Flashback: Almond Crescent Cookies

This cookie came from Cookie Fest 2011 that my friend Belle put on. Along with Belle, Alicia, Samantha and Jenny we made several treats. I am going to release them in a 3 post series. Stay tuned because they are yummy as well as gluten free!!!

1 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup ground almonds
1 egg yolk
1/4 tsp salt
2.25 cups gluten free flour

Cream butter and sugar. Add almonds and yolk. Then work in salt and flour. Chill dough over night. Roll dough with hands to form into crescents. Place on parchment lined cookie sheet and bake in pre heated 350F oven until lightly browned. 20 - 25 min. While still warm roll in powered sugar.
