Ingredients

For the anise cake:

1 coffee cup of sugar
1 coffee cup of white wine
1 coffee cup of peanut oil
1 pinch of yeast
Zest of lemon or orange, grated
30 g (1.1 oz) anise seeds
500 g (17.75 oz) flour (approximately 5 cups)
3 packets of vanilla sugar

Step-by-step directions

1 Mix all the ingredients together: sugar, white wine, peanut oil, grated lemon or orange zest, anise seeds, flour, vanilla sugar, and yeast.

2 Mix everything together and add flour if the dough sticks to your fingers.

3 Take a small piece of dough slightly larger than a walnut and shape it into a ball. Roll this ball between your hands to form a log, then join the two ends by overlapping them.

4 Butter a baking dish and place each formed cake side by side.

5 Bake in the oven at thermostat 6 for approximately 25 minutes.
