Ingredients
Scale
- 4.5 eggs
- 1 pound (3.5 cups) powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 pound (3–4 cups) flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Anise seeds, crushed
Directions
- Beat eggs until light-colored and almost dry—this takes a long time, and an electric mixer is recommended.
- Beat the sugar into the eggs.
- Combine the flour and baking powder. Work into the eggs to make a delicate dough.
- Grease several cookie sheets and scatter generously with crushed anise seeds.
- Roll the dough gently and carefully imprint with springerle mold. Cut into pieces and transfer to baking sheets. Allow to dry overnight.
- Bake at 250°F (120°C) for 25–30 minutes.
