3/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
3 cups flour
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 tablespoons Anise seed
3 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup chopped Almonds (can substitute with Walnuts)
To prepare the biscotti, cream butter, sugar and 1 tablespoon anise seed.
Add eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder and 1 tablespoon Anise
seed. Add to cream mixture. Add nuts, mix in, and form cookie dough into 2
or 3 long thin rolls. Place rolls on a ungreased baking pan or cookie sheet
and bake biscotti cookie rolls at 350 degrees 15 to 20 minutes, or till
light brown. Remove from oven and cut diagonally into 1/2 to 3/4 inch
slices. Put back in oven and bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes or till
Biscotti is lightly toasted. You want the biscoti to dry slightly. It will
look somewhat like a elongated piece of french bread, except smaller.
