Self-Frosting Anise Drops Recipe - Cooking Index
3 | Eggs - (room temperature) | |
1 cup | 198g / 7oz | Sugar |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Sugar |
1 3/4 cups | 109g / 3.8oz | Flour |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Salt |
3 teaspoons | 15ml | Anise seed |
Preheat oven to 325F. Grease and generously flour the cookie sheets.
Beat eggs with electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar gradually, beating constantly; continue to beat for 20 minutes more. Reduce speed of mixer and add flour that has been sifted with baking powder and salt; beat 3 minutes. Add anise. Drop by teaspoonful on prepared cookie sheets, swirling dough to form round cookies. Let stand uncovered at room temperature for at least 8 hours.
Bake 10 minutes or until cookies are a creamy golden color on the bottom (do not allow bottoms to brown). Cookies form a cake-like layer on the bottom with a crisp "frosting" on the top. Store in a tightly covered container.
