4 large eggs
1 cup white sugar
¾ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon anise oil
5 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
½ cup confectioners' sugar, or more as needed
2 tablespoons milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Beat eggs together in a large bowl. Gradually stir white sugar into beaten eggs until smooth. Slowly pour vegetable oil and anise oil into sugar mixture until incorporated.
