Italian pastry with almonds and coffee beans
Beat the sugar, vanilla sugar, eggs, and egg yolks with a hand mixer on high speed until fluffy. Add the flour and knead together with the coffee beans and almonds (adding a little more flour if necessary). Form the dough into two long logs and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake the logs on the middle rack at 170°C for about 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately cut the warm logs into approximately 1 cm thick slices. Place them cut-side up on the baking sheet and bake for another 20 minutes until golden brown. The cantuccini taste best dipped in coffee or cocoa.
