Directions
Anisette Love Knots, Italian cookie favorite, full of anisette flavor , used this recipe and it was good but I isubstituted pure anise oil, it is stronger so you use less, They turned out good I cut them into shapes and also just round cookies and then dipped them in the icing and sprinkled them they are really good!
