Aunt Elaines Italian Anise cookies image

When I first tasted these cookies I was in love, then I found out they were made from riccota cheese. I am not a big fan of any desserts made with cheese, but you cannot even taste the ricotta in them. If you don't care for anise flavoring they can be made with any other flavor you choose.
