Layer the flour whisked with baking powder, then the sugar, almonds, and anise seeds in a quart jar.

Seal and tie on a baking card.

To bake, mix with 2 eggs, 1/4 cup melted butter, and 1 teaspoon almond extract into a stiff dough.

Shape into two logs on a lined sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

Cool slightly, slice into diagonals, and bake the slices 10 more minutes until crisp.
