3. Cream the butter, sugar and 1 egg. Then stir in remaining 2 eggs and 1-1/2 teaspoons anise extract.
4
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet until well combined.

5. Drop tablespoon-sized dough onto baking sheet, 2 inches apart (note: I like to roll all of the dough first because they promise round cookies!).

6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cookie bottoms are beginning to get golden.

7. Let cool on a cookie rack.

8. Meanwhile, mix all the glaze ingredients together (1-1/2 cups powdered sugar, 3/4 teaspoons anise extract, 3 tablespoons milk). If you notice the icing isn't as thick as you'd like, just add a little more powdered sugar to your bowl.

9. Once the cookies are cool, dip each one in the glaze (do about 3 or 4 in a row) then decorate with sprinkles. Repeat for all, then let set for 30 minutes.
