Looking for a recipe for anise cookies …?

My grandmother used to make these cookies flavored with anise fantastic Christmas, and I would try my hand at them. My grandmother died several years ago and my mother can not find the recipe or do not remember if they have a name other than "cookies anise" or "anise pastry biscuits.." I searched Google both names and can not seem to find the right recipe, to the photos … The cookies were crisp and not chewy, was a kind of merengue as the inspiration to them. I remember my grandmother telling me that the secret was the inspiration to ensure that enough eggs are beaten and that the best cookies if you let them sit for a couple of weeks before serving. Can anyone help me find this recipe? Thanks!

Take about a third of the dry ingredients and add to liquid ingredients with a hand or stand mixer to combine them. Then add a tablespoon of milk. Repeat this process by adding another third of flour mixture to the dough, and then another tablespoon of milk. The last batch of flour is necessary to slowly add the mixture between what we can determine the amount of flour is enough. You want the dough is very easy to mold, but does not stick to hands. The dough should not be rigid! If you add too much flour, try adding a few more drops of milk until dough is easy to handle. Using a tablespoon, drop balls mixture onto the baking sheet, leaving space for baking and swell in the oven. Insert the tray into the oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until they swell and plants begin to turn golden light.
