Tip

I prepare my dough the night before and store in fridge over night

It will last in the fridge for at least 3 days

When I roll my Kipferl I only take half of the dough out of fridge and get more once finished shaping

I buy my vanilla powder at a health food store. The taste is intense and the little jar lasts a long time...alternatively you could make Vanilla sugar but I only make mine with the powder
