Vanilla Flavor (Vanilla to taste ½ tsp to 1 tsp)
Directions
Cream together Eggs & Sugar
Then add Butter & Oil
Then add the Lemon Zest
Then add EITHER the Anise Oil OR the Vanilla
(If you choose the Anise Oil PLEASE use caution and add less than is called for & taste the batter then add more to your taste.)
