Why I Love This Recipe

Recipe Backstory: My mother has always made these for Christmas for as long as I can remember. She used a special tool to make them look like flowers, and she puts the frosting in the middle so that it looks like the pollen. She then puts small sprinkles onto the frosting to decorate it. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: The pure substances are: Sugar (C12H22O11). The homogeneous mixtures are: All-purpose flour, milk, vegetable oil, confectioner's sugar, baking powder, hot water and anise extract. The heterogeneous mixture is the eggs.
