Serves/Makes: 96
Ready in: 30-60 minutes
***Cookies***
- 2 cups lard (no substitute)
- 1 cup sweet wine or any fruit juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon anise seeds
- 2 egg yolks
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
***Coating***
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 teaspoons cinnamon
Whip lard until creamy. Mix wine, sugar, cinnamon and anise; add to lard and mix with wooden spoon. Add egg yolks; mix well. Add sufficient flour to make a soft dough; roll out 1/2-inch thick. Cut in desired shapes and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees F; check often to prevent burning. Mix coating ingredients. Dredge cookies in this mixture while still warm. Cook's Notes: In authentic Mexican cooking, lard, not shortening, is used.
