Biscotti

We received this recipe from my mom’s cousin Angie at our wedding shower in 2006.   You could definitely get creative with this one by adding various types of nuts and/or sweet additions to make it your own creation.  Brew up a hot espresso or cafe mocha to compliment.

ingredients 

3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
3 cups flour
1/2 stick butter
1 tsp vanilla extract

preparation

1. Cream together eggs, butter & sugar.
2. Add baking powder & flour.
3. Shape into 2 logs & place on greased cookie sheet.
4. Bake for 25 min at 350 degrees.
5. Let cool & slice diagonally, replace on cookie sheet.
6. Bake an additional 7 minutes at 350 degrees; each side of cookie.

Note:
Angie usually adds 1 cup of slivered almonds (or) 1 cup Craisins (or) chocolate chips to her batches. You can also substitute vanilla for almond or lemon extract.
