Vanilla Kipfl

Recipe Photo

"Katie Lisheron's Vanilla Kipfl are a family favorite at Christmas and other special events. My cousin Mark loved them so much, he could eat a plateful. His nickname was "the Kipfl Kid". Also important - Bury a vanilla bean in 1 lb of powdered sugar several weeks before baking the Kipfl. The sugar will take on the wonderful aroma of vanilla...."
