How to make Anise Sesame Cookies - Maakroon

These Levantine home-style cookies with anise and sesame seeds are called Maakroons. Not the French Macarons. But Maakroons. Anise is a common ingredient used in the Levant to flavor breads and baked goods. It has a taste somewhat similar to licorice and fennel. These cookies are crunchy and not too sweet and they go perfectly well with your morning coffee or tea. On top of that, they are easy and real fun to make.
