Categories     Desserts

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup unsalted butter ( or margarine)
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
5 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. anise extract (can use vanilla or lemon extract instead)
2 cups confectioners' sugar (sifted)
3 Tbsp. milk

Steps:

  • Melt butter and shortening together. Add the sugar; mix well. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the anise extract. Sift or whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Add to creamed mixture gradually. If the dough is too sticky to roll in the palm of your hand, add flour until firmer, but it should be very soft. Roll dough in small balls (these tend to really puff up with all the baking powder in them!) and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake @ 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes (the bottom should be lightly browned but the tops should remain light). Remove cookies to wire rack and cool completely before glazing.
  • Next time I will be more careful with the flour, I think I added a bit too much. The tops of my cookies cracked. I also used my cookie scoop and filled it half way, which seemed to work pretty well.
  • Mix milk GRADUALLY into confectioners' sugar to make a thick glaze... make sure to keep it on the thick side. Dip top of each cookie into glaze. Sprinkle with colored jimmies or nonpareils while glaze is still wet. I usually dip 10-12 cookies, return them to the wire rack (with wax paper under the racks to aid in clean up!) and then sprinkle those cookies before starting to dip more.
  • I dipped and sprinkled 5 at a time, that seemed to be the magic number before the glaze would start to harden.

Time 2h40m

Yield Makes eight 8-ounce bottles

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 cups star-anise pods
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 bottle (1.75 liters) neutral vodka, such as Tito's
1 1/4 cups sugar

Steps:

  • In a mortar and pestle, or a resealable bag and rolling pin, crush anise pods and fennel and coriander seeds. Toast together in a skillet over medium-high until fragrant, about 1 minute. Divide between 2 quart-size glass jars, then divide vodka evenly between jars. Let cool completely. Screw lids onto jars, shake gently, and let stand in a cool, dark place 5 days.
  • Strain vodka mixture through a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth; discard solids. In a small pot, boil sugar and 1 1/4 cups water just until sugar dissolves; add to strained vodka. Let cool completely, then refrigerate until cold, 1 hour. Divide among eight 8-ounce gift bottles. Bottles will keep in refrigerator up to 6 months. To serve, pour 1.5 ounces directly over ice, or add 1 part anisette and 3 parts cold water to a glass filled with ice.

My great-great-aunt Josie created this recipe and handed it down through the family. The anise seed and anisette give it an authentic Italian flavor. A bit labor intensive, but they are so worth it! Great for dunking in tea or coffee, or just munching on. I double the recipe and give them out for Christmas every year.

ANISETTE



Anisette image

Great in cookies at the holiday time.

Provided by Marsha Gardner

Categories     Other Drinks

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c distilled water
1 c corn syrup, white
1/2 c sugar
2-3 dash(es) yellow food coloring
1 1/2 c vodka
6 dash(es) anise extract
2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Boil water, corn syrup and sugar in a heavy saucepan for 5 minutes. Cool; add remaining ingredients and stir well. Cover and let sit for 1 month to develop flavor. Then bottle as desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Sugar: Use granulated sugar for a fine, even coating. Coarse sugar or sanding sugar can also be used, but they will give the sugar a more textured appearance.
  • Use Good Quality Anisette: The quality of the anisette will directly impact the flavor of the sugar. Choose a brand that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Use a Shallow Dish: This will help to ensure that the sugar is evenly coated with the anisette.
  • Stir Continuously: This will help to prevent the sugar from clumping together.
  • Don't Overdo It: A little anisette goes a long way. Too much can make the sugar taste bitter.

Conclusion:

Anisette sugar is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of desserts and cocktails. It is easy to make and adds a unique flavor to any dish. With these tips, you can easily make your own anisette sugar at home.
