Have you ever tasted Abruzzo anise cookies? Well, I recommend you do, they are just too good!
In Abruzzo, they are commonly used, especially for breakfast and snacks. Making them at home is a unique satisfaction, plus they stay crispy for several days. Just store them in a tin box or a plastic bag.
The anise cookies have a flavor that conquers everyone, young and old. There are no other words to describe them, you just have to try them.
Since the anise is in seeds, I prefer to grind them into a powder because I love the flavor and use it abundantly. However, I don’t like feeling the seeds under my teeth when eating a product that contains it, but it’s a spice I love very much!!!
If you make any of my recipes, send me the photos and I will publish them on my page with your name.
So try making them with my recipe, and then let me know if you liked them!
