For a richer flavor, use European-style butter with a higher fat content. Vanilla sugar can be found in specialty baking stores or online. If unavailable, substitute with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. The dough can be a little sticky, so lightly flour your hands and work surface when forming the logs. Keep a close eye on the cookies during baking, as they can burn quickly. The edges should be golden brown, and the center should be set. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
