I haven't made it yet. I am responding to a reviewer "Juszme5" she asked where to get aniseed. I buy it at my local grocery store in the spice aisle. McCormick's has it in a glass bottle with a green cap. Alittle expensive but a little goes a long way. I use it in my pizzelle cookie recipe. Gives a very nice flavor so that is probably why there is no other spices in the recipe. Thanks.

I did not care for this recipe. It was very dense.
