How To make Biscotti with Almonds/Orange/Chocolate
8 Ounces unsalted butter
2 sticks
1 1/2 Cups sugar
3 Tablespoons orange rind :
finely grated
2 Tablespoons vanilla extract -- pure vanilla
6 Cups all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 Teaspoon salt
6 eggs beaten
1/4 Cup amaretto
2 Cups almonds, blanched :
toasted,sliced
2 Cups chocolate chips -- or pieces
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In an electric mixing bowl, combine butter, sugar, orange peel and vanilla; beat until light and creamy. Sift together the dry ingredients. With the mixer on slow, add dry ingredients to butter mixture and mix until thoroughly combined. Slowly add eggs and amaretto. Add almonds and chocolate just until combined. Remove dough to a floured surface and form into two flat logs about 4 inches wide and the length of your cookie sheet. Lay the logs onto buttered sheets and place on lower rack of the oven. Bake until lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. With a serrated knife, cut the loaves into half-inch slices, placing the cut slices flat oon the cookie sheet. To make crisp, return them to the lower rack of the oven and cook until golden, 15-20 minutes. Remove the slices to a wire rack to cool then store in an airtight container. Use a decorative tin for gift giving. NOTE: If the biscotti lose their crispness, repeat the crisping stage. Jo Anne Merrill, recipe from the San Diego Union 9/1/93

Biscotti with Almonds, Cranberry, & Orange
This is another winning flavor combination for biscotti, and I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as my family does. The orange zest adds so much flavor to this and is a perfect complement to the craisins. Try this recipe with walnuts or pecans instead of almonds for a different flavor variation.
Ingredients
• 1 cup sugar
• ½ cup neutral oil
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 cup almonds roughly chopped
• 1 cup craisins
• zest from 1 large or 2 small oranges
• ½ tsp orange extract
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
3. Combine sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla extract, orange extract, and orange zest in a large bowl and mix until well-blended.
4. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl and add to egg mixture.
5. The dough will be heavy. Mix until well combined. If necessary, use your hands to combine thoroughly.
6. Add almonds and craisins and mix into the dough.
7. Divide dough into two equal pieces. Place sheet of parchment paper on sheet pan. Form each piece into a log the length of your cookie sheet and approximately ½ inch thick.
8. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown. Carefully transfer logs to wire racks until cool enough to handle.
9. Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
10. Slice each log crosswise into roughly ½ inch slices. Place slices back on the cookie sheet.
11. Bake an additional 20-30 minutes until lightly toasted.

HOW TO MAKE DELICIOUS BISCOTTI
Almond Anise Biscotti
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon of baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups of sugar
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon of vanilla
1 teaspoon anise extract
1 cup toasted sliced almonds- chopped
1 beaten egg white (beat till frothy)
Directions:
Melt butter, cool slightly. To a large bowl, add sugar, eggs, vanilla and anise. Add dry ingredients. Mix in chopped toasted almonds. Divide dough in thirds and shape into logs with floured hands. Place on parchment covered baking sheet.
Brush logs with frothy egg white.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes until nicely browned and slightly firm.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly for about 10 minutes. Slice logs and return to cookie sheets. Bake another 10 minutes or so on each side, until lightly browned and firm to the touch.
***In the video, I altered the above basic recipe by using: butternut extract (which is equal amounts of almond, vanilla and butter extract) cranberries, white chocolate and fresh orange rind. To be honest, I prefer 1 tablespoon of vanilla and 1 teaspoon of almond extract when making cranberry, orange and white chocolate biscotti. Feel free to experiment with add-ins.
