4. Shape the crescents: After this time, take one log out of the fridge and cut into 1/2-inch / 1 cm slices. If the dough is cold, shape the cookies with your finger until they resemble a crescent. If the dough is more warm you can try to roll the slice of the dough between your palms until it forms a cylinder and then bend each end into a crescent shape. Repeat with the other logs.
