An old recipe from my mother. These cookies are delicious not just at Christmas.

Combine flour and potato flour in a mixing bowl. Place the sugar in the center. Spread the butter in small pieces on top. Add the egg, vanilla sugar, and almonds. Mix everything with the dough hook of a hand mixer until a dough forms. Then let it rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour to firm up. Use a pastry press or a meat grinder with a cookie cutter to form letters or hearts. Place on a greased or, better yet, lined baking sheet. Bake on the middle rack at 200°C for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it, as every oven is different.
