Here is another recipe my mother got from her grandmother. My Italian great grandmother Albigese used to bake this Anise Cookie when my mom would visit Pompton Lakes (PL) as a child. I hope you enjoy baking these with your loved ones and that you make happy memories that will live through the generations.
