Beat the butter with half of the powdered sugar until creamy.
Finely grind the walnuts and mix them with the flour, vanilla, and lemon zest.
Add the dry mixture to the butter and make a soft dough.
Rest the dough in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Roll out the dough and cut small rounds.
Bake the cookies at 170°C for 12 minutes, keeping them pale.
Join the cooled cookies in pairs with jam, then coat them in the remaining powdered sugar.
💡 Tip: Do not brown the cookies too much; vanilice stay pale and soften once joined with jam.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Coat the vanilice in powdered sugar and serve on a small plate with coffee or tea.
