From the book: Yule, A Celebration of Light and Warmth by Dorothy Morrison
Crescent Cakes
Although more like a cookie than cake, these are perfect little treats to serve at Yule rituals of every type. For a real boost of magical power, invoke the spirit of Yule by chanting the names of your favorite Deities while you gather the ingredients. You'll be amazed at the results!
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup ground almonds
3 drops almond extract
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup softened butter
1 egg yolk
2 tbsp. honey
Combine the first five ingredients in a large bowl, then add the butter, egg yolk and honey. Mix well. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove the dough, pinch off 2-inch pieces and shape them into little crescents. Bake on a well-greased cookie sheet at 350' degrees for 18-20 minutes. Makes 12-15 cakes.
