BISCOTTI
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup white sugar
- 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 tablespoon almond extract
- 1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, beat together the oil, eggs, sugar and extracts until well blended. Combine the flour and baking powder, stir into the egg mixture to form a heavy dough (As tempted as you may be do not add more flour). Divide dough into two pieces. Form each piece into a roll as long as your cookie sheet. Place roll onto the prepared cookie sheet, and press down to 1/2 inch thickness. TIP- the dough is very sticky and is much easier to handle if your hands are slightly damp.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Remove from oven and slice each one crosswise into 1/2 inch slices using a pizza cutter. Place the slices cut side up back onto the baking sheet. Bake for an additional 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Slices should be lightly toasted.
- If you want to jazz up your biscotti try adding nuts, cranberries, chocolate, etc. Let your imagination soar and mouth water!
Thanks for putting the C temp. I'm still getting used to converting everything. :)
