Chinese 5-Spice Oatmeal Cookies image

When I purchased a bottle of Chinese 5-spice powder from my Watkins lady, this is the recipe that came with it. Chinese 5-spice is a blend of aromatic seasonings and includes the licoricy taste of star anise. You can find Chinese 5-spice prebottled in many grocery stores or at an Asian market (or from your local Watkins rep).

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard.

These cookies are a good base recipe. I think they would be even better with some chocolate chips or nuts added.

I found these cookies to be a bit dry. I think I'll add some extra butter next time.
