For the wreaths, strain the yolks and beat with sugar and butter until fluffy. Stir in flour, salt and vanilla sugar. Now let the dough rest in a cool place for a few hours.
Then roll out the dough to a thickness of 3 mm and cut out rings about 5 cm in diameter.
Mix sugar with nuts, brush the rings with yolk and dip the wreaths in the nuts. Now spread them on a baking tray.
Bake the Kranzerl at 200° C until light brown.
Then put two rings together with jam and enjoy the Kranzerl.
