INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 6 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tablespoon baking powder
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt

  • Wet Ingredients & Sweeteners

    • 2 cups lard, softened
    • 🍚 1 ½ cups white sugar
    • 🥚 2 large eggs
    • ¼ cup brandy
    • 🍚 ¼ cup white sugar
    • 🌰 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • Flavorings

    • 2 teaspoons anise seed

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl; set aside.

2

In a large bowl, beat the lard and 1 ½ cups sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the anise seed and beat until fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, followed by the brandy. Gradually incorporate the flour mixture to form the dough.

3

Roll dough with a floured rolling pin to a thickness of 1/4 or 1/2 inch. Use cookie cutters to cut dough into shapes, such as fleur-de-lis. Transfer cookies to ungreased baking sheets.

4

Mix 1/4 cup of sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle the mixture over the shaped cookies.

5

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool before serving.
