July 2nd is National Anisette Cookie Day, and in celebration of this sweet day here are some anise flavored cookie recipes to try. They come from my collection of cookbooks from the 50s and 60s. For an interesting one, try an anise drop cookie recipe from 1907<\/a> from Old School Pastry.<\/p>\n

What is anise? Anise or aniseed is the spice with a licorice flavor. Both the seed and the oil is used to flavor foods in cooking and baking. Aniseed, Pimpinella anisum<\/em>, has a similar flavor to fennel seed, Foeniculum vulgare<\/em>, and star anise, Illicium verum<\/em>. Aniseed is fragrant, very sweet, and a little goes a long way. Anise seed, or aniseed, is also enjoyed by itself for a sweet and flavorful after dinner treat.<\/p>\n

These light cookies call for beating the eggs until light, then adding in powdered sugar gradually. It calls for both oil of anise and anise seeds. This recipe is adapted from the 1953 book, The Family Circle Cake and Cooky Cookbook. Note: this recipe does not call for any chemical leavening (no baking powder or soda).<\/span><\/div>\n
