Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup coarse semolina flour
3 tablespoons almond flour (or finely ground almonds with skin)
2 teaspoons anise seeds
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, plus 2 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together flours, anise, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Put sugar and zest into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed for 30 seconds. Add butter; mix until pale and fluffy, about 1 minute. Reduce speed to medium. Mix in juice and egg. Add flour mixture; mix until just combined.
  • Working in batches, spoon batter into a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain round tip (such as Wilton No. 1A). Pipe 3 1/2-inch-long lines onto parchment-lined baking sheets, making the ends slightly thicker than centers. Bake cookies until edges and bottoms are golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks 5 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer cookies to rack; let cool completely.

I'm allergic to anise, so I substituted fennel seeds. The cookies were still very good.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as well as the ones in the picture. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not usually a fan of anise, but I loved these cookies! The orange flavor really mellowed out the anise flavor.
