Italian

We really enjoyed these traditional Italian cookies. They're light and airy with a hint of lemon flavor. The delicate cookie just melts in your mouth. Delicious alongside a cup of coffee. They'll look great on your Christmas cookie platter.

These cookies are a bit dry. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make them.

I'm not a big fan of anise, but I still enjoyed these cookies. The almond flavor is strong enough to balance out the anise.
