•  1 TBS  Baking Powder
•  1 ½ tsp    Anise Oil or Substitute 1 TBS of Anise Extract for anise oil

3. In medium bowl, beat together the oil, eggs, sugar and anise until well blended.
4. Combine the flour and baking powder, stir into the egg mixture to form a heavy dough.  
5. Divide dough into two even pieces. Form each piece into a roll as long as your cookie sheet (see photo).

7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven until golden brown.
8. Remove from the baking sheet to cool on a wire rack.
9. When the cookies are cool enough to handle, slice each one crosswise into ½ inch slices.
10. Place the slices cut side up back onto the baking sheet.
11. Bake for an additional 6-10 minutes on each side. Slices should be lightly toasted.
