MOM'S TRADITIONAL ITALIAN COOKIES
These cookies are a staple in my family. They are so simple, yet so incredibly wonderful. This recipe has been passed down from my great-grandmother. I've listed here the original recipe from my Nonna and great Aunt, as it was given to my mother. It can easily be cut in half, or in fourths. Obviously the full recipe makes ALOT OF COOKIES!! My mom has been known to actually make the full batch, especially for Christmas. Besides the traditional "knot" shape, the cookie dough can be rolled out and cut with cookie cutters. Pumpkins, Autumn leaves, Christmas trees, stars, and Easter eggs are but a few of the shapes we like to make these in. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family does. (Prep time includes dough resting time, and cooking time includes glaze drying time)

Steps:
- For Cookie Dough: Cream butter & sugar.
- Beat in eggs, baking powder, extracts and 3 cups of flour.
- Add remaining flour until a stiff dough forms.
- Chill dough for at least an hour to make it easier to work with.
- At this point you can form the dough into knots (small for cookies- larger knots yield egg biscuits) or roll out the dough and use cutters.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes at 375°.
- For Glaze: I put about 2 cups of powdered sugar in a bowl, add the extract (just a splash) and a little milk.
- Then I mix and add more milk until it gets to a smooth consistency- I don't like it too runny.
- Should be like the consistency of a thick alfredo sauce.
- Once cookies are cooled, dip the tops of each one into the glaze, or drizzle glaze over the cookies, and allow to dry completely.
- Can be topped with colored sugar or sprinkles, your choice.

ITALIAN ANISETTE COOKIES
Anisette cookies are another one of those traditional Italian cookie recipes. This cookie gets it's flavoring from the anisette liquor.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Add sugar, salt, baking powder, anisette; beat until smooth.
- In a small bowl, beat together oil and room temperature butter until well combined. Stir into batter.
- Gradually add flour, beating only for a short time after flour has been added. Use more or less flour to make a soft cookie batter dough. (Using less flour will make for a lighter cookie). Dough should be soft, but stiff enough to form a smooth shape.
- Cover; refrigerate dough for several hours.
- Using a cookie scoop or two teaspoons, shape the dough into small balls; press bottom of cookies lightly onto lightly greased cookie sheets, while keeping the rounded tops.
- Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 15 minutes. The cookies should be crisp but do not brown - they should be very light in color.
- Using a spatula, transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
- To ice the cookies: In a clean mixing bowl, combine 1 cup confectioners' sugar with 4 teaspoons milk and 4 teaspoons Karo syrup. Stir until the icing is of a spreadable consistency, adding more milk if required. A few drops of anisette may be added for flavor; a drop or two of food coloring can be stirred in for a pastel-colored icing, if desired.
- Dip cookie tops into icing, then optionally sprinkle with colored cookie decorations.
- Makes approximately 3 1/2 dozen cookies.
