Biscotti Recipe

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Grease two cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.

Step 2

Sugar, oil, eggs, and anise extract are mixed together in a medium bowl until well-blended.

Flour and baking powder are mixed together in a separate bowl; they are combined with the egg mixture to form a heavy dough.

Step 3

Divide dough into two equal pieces. Form each piece into a log the length of a cookie sheet. Place one log on each of the prepared sheets; and press dough down to 1/2-inch thickness.

Step 4

Bake logs until golden brown in the preheated oven, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer logs to wire racks; let sit until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes.

Step 5

Slice each log crosswise into about eighteen 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place slices cut-sides up back on the cookie sheets.

Step 6

Bake until lightly toasted and golden brown, 6 to 10 minutes per side.
