Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 50
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 500 g icing sugar (confectioner's sugar)
- 2 tablespoons kirsch
- 1 tablespoon anise seed
- 1 pinch salt
- 600 g plain flour
Directions
- Break the anise seeds down a little in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle so they are not so chunky.
- Cream eggs and sugar.
- Add kirsch, ground aniseed, and salt.
- Add flour and knead to a dough. You may need a little extra flour to get it to the right consistency.
- Roll out the dough to 1cm thick on a floured surface.
- Using cookie cutters, cut out shapes, make decorations on them using shortbread moulds (or use Anisbrötli Mödeli if you have them!).
- Place on baking paper on an oven tray.
- Bake at 160 degrees Celcius for 20 minutes. The biscuits should not brown but stay light in colour.
