3 eggs beaten
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. butter, melted
1 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. anise extract
1 tsp. vanilla

Add and beat ingredients together in order listed (use more flour for thicker cookies). Batter should be thick but flow from a spoon. Close lid. Allow to cook until steaming stops - about 45 to 60 seconds, using 1 tablespoon of batter in center of both sections of preheated griddle. Remove with fork. Allow to cool on wire rack or towels. Makes 2 dozen.
