Making the Cake
- In a mixing bowl, combine raisins, chopped walnuts, whiskey, sugar, cinnamon, orange juice, and anisette. Stir well and cover tightly. Let sit overnight.
- On a clean surface, mound flour and make a well in the center. Add eggs, vegetable oil, white wine, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and baking soda into the well. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 3-4 minutes. Divide into 8 balls and cover to prevent drying out.
- Flatten each ball to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into 2.5-inch wide strips, dusting with flour to prevent sticking.
- Place a generous amount of walnut-raisin mixture along the center of each strip. Fold and roll gently to form coils, sealing edges.
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. Arrange coils on the sheet and bake for approximately 35 minutes until golden.
- Remove from oven and brush with melted honey. Return to oven for another 5 minutes to set glaze. Sprinkle with colored sprinkles and cool on a wire rack.

Notes
Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes before rolling for the best texture. Keep an eye on the cake during the last few minutes of baking.
