Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 eggs
  • 6 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp almond, (anise, or vanilla extract)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp almond extract, ( or vanilla extract)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3-4 Tbsp cream or milk, (warmed)

Instruction

  • Whisk together eggs, oil, sugar, and extract in a mixing bowl. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Roll dough by tablespoonfuls into balls. Chill balls of dough for at least an hour, or freeze for 15-20 minutes.  Place cold dough balls on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake at 350° for about 9 minutes, or till the tops are set. Bottoms will be lightly browned, but tops should still be white. Remove cookies to cooling racks and cool completely.
  • For the glaze, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk till smooth, adding enough warm cream to get a thin but creamy consistency.
  • Dip the tops of the cookies in the glaze, then top with sprinkles.
