Ingredients - Serves 24

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ground almonds, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes, then roll them in powdered sugar while still warm.
Once completely cooled, roll the cookies in powdered sugar again for a final coating.
Serve and enjoy!
