Spingerles Cookies

2 Eggs
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 Cup Sugar
2 Cups Flour (I used Wheat flour)
Anise extract to taste
1 Teaspoon Lemon Zest or Juice

In a bowl mix everything up really good.  When the dough forms knead it lightly for about a minute or so.  Place dough back into bowl and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.  The next day roll out the dough again and using a springerles roll or cookie plates cut out cookies.  I didn't have either so I just used cookie cutters and cut them out as cookies.  Preheat oven to 325 and bake for 15-20 minutes, not letting the cookies brown you just want them to be cookies not bricks or mush. 

These cookies are delicious if you like the flavor of black licorice.  If you cook them too long and they become hard and crunchy (like mine) they are really good as tea or coffee cookies.
