Grandpa Leone's Cookies





My grandfather Leone used to bake these all the time and were used to dunk in coffee.
I just thought they were the greatest as a little girl and even better when I started drinking coffee . Missing Grandpa today and his Italian cooking

3 cups all purpose flour
3 eggs
3 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp anise
1/2 cup real butter



Directions
Heat oven at 350


Cream eggs butter and flavoring.


Add rest of ingredients.


blend well and form a dough ball. Pinch off enough to make long tube shape about 5 inches.


Place then on non-stick cookie sheet and bake for about 20 minutes or until lightly tan in color. Remove from sheet and let cool on wire rack.
