Holiday Biscotti
Instructions
Ingredients
1 lb. of Ground Nuts
(I usually use pecans)
3 c Sugar
2 Whole Eggs
1 cup plus 4 tbsp
Egg Whites
½ tsp. Salt
4 c (rounded)
All Purpose Flour
3 tsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Almond Flavoring
6 tbsp. Butter
Ground nuts finely in a food processor.
Place in mixing bowl and add butter and
sugar. Using paddle attachment, cream
well. Add eggs and flavorings until com-
bined thoroughly. Combine dry ingredi-
ents and add until combined. Lightly flour
surface and begin to shape dough into a
log. Try not to add to much flour as this
will change the flavor and texture of your
biscotti. Dough will be slightly sticky.
Place loaf shaped biscotti onto parch-
ment paper lined sheet pan. Bake at 350
degrees for approximately 17-20 minutes
or until firm to the touch. Let cool, slice
into ½ inch thick slices and bake again for
approximately 7-10 minutes or just until
edges are golden brown and centers are
no longer moist.
*Note: Traditionally, biscotti I is twice-baked
which makes it great for dipping in coffee or
tea. However, you can bake it once and enjoy
tender soft biscotti as well! Enjoy!
