3 eggs
1 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tbsp. anise seed, crushed
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. sifted flour

Beat eggs. Add sugar gradually and beat until the batter is light in color. Stir in vanilla. Sift dry ingredients together and add to egg mixture. Add anise seed.

Drop the batter from a teaspoon onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Let the cookies stand on the baking sheet overnight so that they will dry out. Makes 4 dozen.
