Method

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and gradually mix in the flour until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a small ball.
Flatten each ball into a disc and place a small dollop of apricot jam in the center.
Fold the edges of the dough over the jam to form a crescent shape and seal the edges.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.
Enjoy!
