>From my friend, Rob Rodini, this recipe for Italian
biscotti!
BISCOTTI SAL BRUNO
Preheat oven to 350.
Cream together:
1/2 cup (1/4 lb.) butter or margarine
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. anise flavoring
Beat into the above mixture:
3 eggs
1 cup coarsely chopped toasted almonds, walnuts,
or hazelnuts (or a combo)(if you use a highpowered mixer,
add hand at end; they tend to get too fine otherwise)
Add:
3 cups sifted flour
3 tsps. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
On a floured surface, knead gently until smooth.
Divide dough intothree equal pieces and shape into a roll
just under the length of a cookie baking sheet.
Roll the roll into sesame seeds to coat it (optional).
Place each roll on a cookie sheet and bake 30 minutes.
Remove from oven, cool and then slice roll cross wise into
about 3/4 in diagonal slices.
Toast about 10 minutes on each side.
Note: My fiends have done variations whereby they've 1/2
cup of flour with sifted cocoa. And have sometimes added
chocolate chips. It's a recipe you can play around with.
Also, egg substitute seems to work well. COOL COMPLETELY
before storing; they keep almost indefinitely in an airtight
container.
