                <text>This is a fun batch of cards from Florida.  In this set there was a mix of handwritten recipes, clippings (most of which I excluded), and clippings taped/glued to cards.  There were a couple of standout recipes like 'Hamb. Something' and 'Hobo Hotdish' that really cracked me up.  There were also some interesting nuances in terms of techniques.  One standout is the recipe for 'Vanilla Ice Cream' that includes lemon juice and flour.</text>

Features Editor Mary Kate Hogan
shares the secrets of her aunt Anne,
90, a wonderful baker. This family fa-
vorite is delicious and simple to make,
and the cookies keep well–if they
aren't devoured right away! Freeze the
dough up to a month ahead, then just
slice and bake when hungry.*

PREP 30 minutes plus chilling
BAKE about 12 minutes per batch
MAKES about 6 dozen cookies

   3/4  cup sugar
   1/2  cup butter (1 stick), softened
             (no substitutions)
     1  large egg
   1/2  teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4  cups all-purpose flour
     1  tablespoon anise seeds, crushed
   1/2  teaspoon baking powder
   1/4  teaspoon salt

Back:
1. In large bowl, with mixer at medi-
um speed, beat sugar and butter un-
til creamy, about 1 minute, occa-
sionally scraping bowl with rubber
spatula. Reduce speed to low; beat
in egg and vanilla until blended.
Beat in flour, anise seeds, baking
powder, and salt until well com-
bined, occasionally scraping bowl.

2. Divide dough in half. Shape each
half into 5 1/2" by 2" rectangle. Wrap
each rectangle in plastic wrap and re-
frigerate 2 hours or until dough is
firm enough to slice. (Or place
dough in freezer about 1 hour. )
3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease
large cookie sheet. With knife, cut
rectangle crosswise into scant
1/8-inch-thick slices. Place cookies,
1 inch apart, on cookie sheet.
4. Bake cookies 12 to 14 minutes or
until lightly browned. Transfer cook-
