Cool them down and chop finely. It is important that the almonds are cool before they are added to the dough. Otherwise, the dough gets too soft to work with.
  2. Blend the vanilla pod with a little sugar until you have fine homemade vanilla sugar. Mix vanilla sugar with the rest of the sugar.
  3. Flour, eggs, butter, vanilla sugar and almonds are mixed well, until the dough no longer sticks to the hands. If the almonds have been too hot when added to the dough, and the dough is too soft to work with, put the dough in the refrigerator until it is firmer.
