4 tsp. - anise extract
3/4 c. - sugar

Directions:
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350º F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2) In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, sugar, extract and baking powder.

3) Add in the vegetable oil and milk. Then in the flour, one cup at a time, until well combined. Chill the dough for 20 minutes to help with stickiness.

4) Pinch off walnut sized pieces of dough and roll smooth between your palms. Arrange balls of dough 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.

5) Bake for 10 -12 minutes, or until bottoms of the cookies are light golden brown. The tops will still be pale.

6) Remove from oven, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

7) Combine glaze ingredients in a bowl until just smooth. You want it more thick than thin but still runny.

8) Dip the tops of the cooled cookies int the glaze to drip down the sides of the cookie.

9) Top with sprinkles before the glaze hardens.
