    List of Ingredients




    6 cups flour
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    3 teaspoons anise seed (crushed with a rolling pin)
    2 cups (1 pound) pure lard
    2 eggs
    1 cup sugar
    6-7 tablespoons water
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon cinnamon

    Recipe



    Sift flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. Cream sugar and lard until creamy. Add eggs and anise seed and cream again until very fluffy. Mix with first mixture. Add enough water to hold the dough together. Roll out 1/4 inch thick. Cut in fancy shapes. [I chill the dough and run it through a cookie press instead of rolling it out and cutting them.] Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. Combine sugar and cinnamon and roll cookies in mixture.
