Sorry! You need to beat the eggs only 3 minutes, not 30!

Italian Easter Anise Cookies

8 whole eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
7 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
7 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons anise seeds
2 teaspoons vanilla
4 cups flour

Beat eggs in large bowl until creamy and very airy, about 3 minutes. Add
salt, sugar, baking powder, and oil, and continue beating for a few
minutes. Add seeds and vanilla. Stir in with spoon. Add 3 cups flour and
fold in.
Then add the last cup of flour a little at a time. Roll dough out on board
and shape cookies using remaining flour. Dough should be soft and sticky.
Shape in diagonal pieces or diamond shapes, about 2 inches long. Bake 15
minutes until brown at 375 degrees. Frost with powdered sugar icing. Makes
about 75 cookies.
