Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 lbs. Flour
2 1/2 c. Vegetable Shortening
6 Cinnamon Sticks
4 Tbsp. Anise Seeds
2 c. Water
3 1/2 c. Sugar
1/4 c. Ground Cinnamon
Directions:
Directions:
- Add the shortening and the flour in a big bowl, begin kneading the dough until it resembles course corn meal.
- In a small pot boil the 2 cups of water, the anise seeds, cinnamon sticks and optional 1/2 cup of sugar.
- Slowly begin adding the anise tea to the flour, in 1/4 cup intervals and knead the dough until it's soft and not sticky to your skin. (You may not need all the anise tea.)
- In a container with a lid mix 3 cups of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup ground cinnamon (This will be the coating for when the cookies are out of the oven.)
- Roll out the dough, not too thin nor too thick because then it won't cook all the way. Use a cookie cutter if you would like a certain shape.
- Bake at 375º for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. (If unsure if cooked throughout cut a cookie in half - it should crumble.)

VERY IMPORTANT:
As soon as the cookies are taken out of the oven, immediately put in the container with the sugar and ground cinnamon so the heat can cause the mixture to stick!
