These antique cookie molds are family heirlooms, immigrating with Willa and Reed’s father’s family from Germany over a hundred years ago. The recipe is written in their great-grandmother’s hand-writing on looseleaf paper. Every December, Reed, Willa and their parents make the dough, press the anisette cookies, dry and bake them. It takes three days to create a batch of these cookies. A batch that takes three days but was over a century in the making.
