Traditional Biscochito Christmas Cookie

Описание: Biscochito dough is made with crushed anise seeds, as well as a hint of orange and cinnamon, which gives them a very unique flavor. They are very similar to shortbread and sugar cookies. Biscochitos are served during wedding receptions, baptisms, religious holidays, and especially during the Christmas season. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
