I found these Mexican Tea Cakes to be a bit too sweet for my taste. However, my husband loved them, so I would say they're worth trying if you have a sweet tooth.

These Mexican Tea Cakes were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland. I wouldn't recommend them.

I found these Mexican Tea Cakes to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I also wasn't a fan of the anise flavor. However, my husband loved them, so I would say they're worth trying if you're a fan of sweet, anise-flavored treats.

These Mexican Tea Cakes are a great way to use up leftover anise seeds. They're also very easy to make and can be made ahead of time. I like to serve them with a cup of coffee or tea.

I was a bit skeptical about trying these Mexican Tea Cakes because I'm not a big fan of anise, but I'm so glad I did! The anise flavor is very subtle, and it really complements the other flavors in the cake. These are a great addition to any tea part
