Biscotti Alla Nonna
Notes:
I was expecting this recipe to make the hard, bubbly sort of biscotti one normally encounters in this day and age but these turn out more like fine-grained cookies. Quite tasty.
Ingredients:
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup sugar
1/2 lb (2 cups) margarine
1 tsp anise extract
1 tsp almond extract
1 tsp anise seed
2 1/2 cup flour, sifted
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
Preparation:
Cream together eggs, sugar and margarine; add extracts and seeds. Beat until creamy. Sift flour and baking powder and add to mixture. Bake in a 375 degree oven until brown, 10-15 minutes or so. Remove from oven and cut into slats and turn on cut side. Put back into oven to brown, an additional 10-14 minutes.
