Biscochitos cookies

Ingredients:

• 6 cups premium flour
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 450 g lard (do not substitute with anything)
• 1.5 cups of sugar
• 2 teaspoons of anise seeds
• 2 eggs
• 0.5 cups of sweet table wine
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tbsp. cinnamon

Preparation:

1. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a mixer on medium speed, beat the lard with the sugar and anise. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy. Add the beaten eggs to the sugar mixture. Mix well, adding the wine, and knead into a stiff dough, adding more wine if necessary.
2. Place the dough in the refrigerator overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 175°C.
4. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature until it's soft enough to handle. Divide the dough into four pieces and roll them out to a thickness of about 0.3 cm. Use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes and arrange them on a baking sheet.
5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown on the bottom. Meanwhile, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Roll the finished cookies in the sugar mixture and let cool.
