Tasty Pepper Cookies
Black Pepper Wine Cookies are nice little cookies almost cracker-like to snack on. Perfect with a glass of Pinot Grigio.
The cookies are made with warm wine and warm oil together, anise seed flour, black pepper, and salt, and like eating popcorn, you just can't stop.
Mom's recipe is easy but also she threw everything in a bowl and never measured, a true Italian cook!
These are not hard cookies, these are flaky cookies with a wonderful taste and texture more like a breadstick and not sweet.
