Ruben Jerez
"You must find some time to make these cookies because are simply delicious; one of my best friend's favorites. They are classic sugar cookies with the blended flavors of vanilla, anise and rum."

Ready In
- Place the anise seeds in a small bowl with the rum. Set aside to marinate overnight.
- In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the anise seed and rum. Mix in the egg. Combine the flour, salt, baking powder and cloves; stir into the butter mixture until well blended. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters. Place cookies on a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown at the edges. Cool for a few minutes on baking sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

These are very mellow cookies...they have just enough spice to taste it but you might like a little more punch! Very good though.

This was such fun to make. The dough came together easily, rolled out easily, and produced a tender cookie. It made 5 dozen 2 1/2-inch great-tasting cookies. I used Bacardi light.
