ANISE BUTTER COOKIES
Here in New Mexico, these cookies are known as "bizcochitos," which means "small biscuit." There are many variations of the recipe, which has been passed down through the generations. The cookies are enjoyed during the Christmas holidays and at wedding receptions and other special celebrations. They're good by themselves or dunked in milk or coffee. -Mari Lynn Van Ginkle, Sandia Park, New Mexico
