These cookies are a bit too crumbly for my taste. I would try a different recipe next time.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites in the fridge and these cookies are a perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of anise, so I omitted it from the recipe. The cookies were still delicious!
