Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 6 tbsp canola oil
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp anise extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 pinch salt

Glaze

• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp anise extract
• 1 pinch salt
• 3-4 Tbsp cream or milk

Instructions

1. Whisk together eggs, oil, sugar in a mixing bowl. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. 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.
3. Bake at 350° for about 9-10  minutes, or till tops are set. Bottoms will be lightly browned, but tops should still be white. Remove cookies to cooling racks and cool completely.
4. For glaze, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk till smooth, adding enough cream to get a thin but creamy consistency.
5. Dip tops of the cookies in the glaze, then top with sprinkles.
