Anise Biscuits

Ingredients

• 2 Eggs
• 200 g sugar
• 2 tbsp rum
• 1 tbsp crushed anise seeds
• 250 g flour

Instructions

1. 1.

   Whisk eggs with sugar and rum into a light frothy cream. Gradually fold in the anise seeds and flour until incorporated. On a floured surface roll the dough into finger‑thick sheets, cut 6 cm long rolls, then make three diagonal slashes on one side of each roll up to the center.

2. 2.

   Line two baking trays with butter and dust with flour. Bend the rolled biscuits with cuts outward into little pinwheel shapes, place them on the trays, cover and let rest at room temperature for 12 hours. Preheat oven to 160°C. Bake the biscuits on the middle rack for about 20 minutes until the bottoms start to brown lightly. Remove and cool.
