Beschuit met Muisjes (Rusk with Aniseed Sprinkles)
One serving has 200 kcal and 2 g protein. Ready in 5 minutes.

- Preparation: 5 min
- Makes: 1 serving (41 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, gluten, honey
Ingredients
- 20 g Graham crackers
- 10 g Butter, unsalted
- 10 g Sugar
- 1 g Anise seed
Method
- Spread each rusk (beschuit, or the graham cracker here) with a thin, even layer of butter.
- Crush the anise seed lightly and mix with the sugar to mimic the tiny sugar-coated aniseed "muisjes" sprinkles traditionally scattered on top (real muisjes are pink and white, and are given out to celebrate a new baby).
- Scatter the aniseed sugar generously over the buttered rusks so it sticks to the butter.
- Serve straight away, while the rusk is still crisp.
