Light and fluffy cloud cookies flavored with either lemon, vanilla or my favorite anise. Lightly baked and cooked a bit before a dip into the glaze and iconic sprinkles are added. Kids love these cookies as do adults. As with most Italian recipes, this makes roughly 36 cookies.
In a mixing bowl whisk together eggs, oil and sugar. Add flavor of choice. Add flour, baking powder and salt mixing until just combined.
Chill dough for roughly 45 minutes. After chilling use a 1-2 Tbs cookie scoop to dispense onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Space 1” apart. Bake 350 degrees about 8-10 minutes until light in color, do not over bake. Let cool 5 minutes before glazing and adding sprinkles.
Glaze:
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp anise, vanilla, almond or lemon zest
• 3-4 Tbs milk or cream slightly warm
• pinch salt
whisk all together in shallow bowl until honey consistency. Dip each cookie top into glaze, place on drying rack and add sprinkles.
