My mom makes a really good biscotti. By request, here is the recipe.
Here is my mom's recipe. It really is good.
375 degree oven greased cookie sheet
1 stick butter
1cup white sugar
3 1/4 c. all purpose flour
3 eggs
1 tablespoon baking powder
3 tablespoons Amaretto
Half bag mini chocolate chips (optional)
in a medium bowl beat together butter, eggs sugar and flavoring until well blended. Combine flour and baking powder. Stir into egg mixture to form a heavy dough.
To make handling easier. Refrigerate dough for one hour. Divide dough into two pieces. Form each piece into a roll as long as your cookie sheet. (Roll in a piece of wax paper to prevent sticking. ) Place dough onto the prepared cookie sheet and press down to 1/2 inch thickness.
Bake 25-30 minutes in preheated oven until a golden brown. Remove from the cookie sheet to a wire rack to cool. When the loaves are cool enough to handle, slice each one crosswise in 1/2 inch slices. Place slices back on cookie sheet cut side up. Bake for an additional 7-10 minutes on each side. Slices should be lightly toasted (or darker according to your preference).
Makes approx. 4 doz.
