1. Stage
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Cream the butter with 1 cup of the sugar for five to seven minutes or until it is light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly, and then stir in the anise extract. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in another bowl, and then gradually add this mixture into the creamed mixture. Blend the mixtures well, and then stir in the chopped almonds.
2. Stage
Line a large baking sheet with foil, and then grease the foil. Divide the dough into two portions and place them on the foil. Shape each into a 12x3-inch rectangle. Brush the tops of both rectangles with milk, and then sprinkle the rest of the sugar over each.
3. Stage
Bake the rectangles for 15 to 20 minutes until they're golden brown and feel firm. Lift the foil and place the rectangles on the foil on a wire rack, where you'll let them cool for about 15 minutes. Turn the oven temperature down to 300°.
4. Stage
Move the cooled rectangles to a cutting board, and cut them into diagonal slices that are 1/2-inch thick. Use a serrated knife for best results. Place each slice cut side down on an ungreased baking sheet.
5. Stage
Bake the slices for 10 minutes; turn the slices over and bake for another 10 minutes. Place the slices on a wire rack to let them cool. Once they're ready, store them in an airtight container.
