My aunt would make anise recipes all the time for dessert and these biscotti were my favorite. I can remember walking into the house and I'd almost swoon when I smelled them baking-the aroma seemed to fill every room. -Esther Perea, Van Nuys, California

ANISETTE BISCOTTI
My great-great-aunt Josie created this recipe and handed it down through the family. The anise seed and anisette give it an authentic Italian flavor. A bit labor intensive, but they are so worth it! Great for dunking in tea or coffee, or just munching on. I double the recipe and give them out for Christmas every year.

BISCOTTI, TRADITIONAL ANISE
A friend's daughter gave me the original recipe years ago and the only major change I've made is using Sambuca liqueur rather than anise extract. My 3 honorary grandchildren Jerod, James and Shiloh all teethed on these and their Mom Sarah request them every Christmas season. These Italian dunking cookies go well with milk, coffee or tea.
