Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until the dough comes together. The dough will be soft but shouldn't be sticky.
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and roll it into a short log shape. Gently curve the log into a crescent shape and place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the cookies about an inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are just starting to turn golden. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are completely cool, dust them liberally with powdered sugar using a fine-mesh sieve.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy!
