ANISE BISCOTTI DI PRATO
Biscotti are twice-baked biscuits originating in the Italian city of Prato. The biscuits are oblong-shaped, often of almond, made dry and crunchy through cutting the loaf of dough while still hot and fresh from baking in the oven. With a cup of tea, coffee or hot chocolate a great cool weather snack.

ANISE BISCOTTI
My aunt would make anise recipes all the time for dessert and these biscotti were my favorite. I can remember walking into the house and I'd almost swoon when I smelled them baking-the aroma seemed to fill every room. -Esther Perea, Van Nuys, California

ANISETTE BISCOTTI
My great-great-aunt Josie created this recipe and handed it down through the family. The anise seed and anisette give it an authentic Italian flavor. A bit labor intensive, but they are so worth it! Great for dunking in tea or coffee, or just munching on. I double the recipe and give them out for Christmas every year.

Steps:
- Beat sugar and eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Mix in walnuts, oil, anisette liqueur, brandy, and anise seeds. Fold in flour and baking powder until dough comes together. Cover with plastic wrap and chill, about 3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. Use greased hands to shape half the dough into a 1 1/2-inch-wide log on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough on second baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven, switching baking sheets halfway through, until dough is pale golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 17 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer logs to a cutting board and slice into 1-inch pieces at a 45-degree angle using a sharp or serrated knife. Arrange slices on their sides on the baking sheets.
- Bake again in the preheated oven, flipping slices over halfway through, until lightly browned, about 14 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Place the almonds on a cookie sheet and toast them in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, then transfer to a wide ceramic platter to cool off. Do not leave them on the cookie sheet or they will continue to cook and burn.
- Turn oven up to 350 degrees F.
- In a stand mixer using a paddle attachment, beat 2 eggs, 2 yolks, melted butter, and 10 1/2 ounces sugar on medium speed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, package of Lievito Pane degu Angeli, orange zest, and pinch of salt then slowly, one spoonful at the time, add the dry ingredients to the egg and sugar mixture and work until the dough forms and starts coming away from the sides of the bowl, about 2 minutes. Cook's Note: The dough should not be too wet. If the dough crumbles, add an extra egg yolk to bind the ingredients.
- Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir in the almonds; do this final step by hand as the almonds would break if added into the mixer.
- Butter 2 cookie sheets and, using your hands, separate the dough in two equal parts that you will roll into cylinders approximately 2-inches thick by 8-inches long.
- In a small bowl mix 2 tablespoons sugar and one egg, then with a pastry brush glaze the cookie dough evenly and place the sheets in the oven.
- Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, until the top has reached a nice golden brown color.
- Remove from the oven and rest on a cooling rack for about 1 hour, then using a bread knife, slice the cookies about 3/4-inch thick.
- To ensure a proper crunchiness, leave the cookies to rest uncovered through the night, and then toast them in the oven at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes on each side the day after. When they cool off for the second time the will be perfectly "tempered".
ANISE-ALMOND BISCOTTI
Steps:
- Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Sift flour, baking powder and salt into medium bowl. Mix sugar, melted butter, 3 eggs, vanilla extract and ground aniseed in large bowl. Add flour mixture to egg mixture and stir with wooden spoon until well blended. Mix in almonds.
- Divide dough in half. Using floured hands, shape each dough half into 13 1/2-inch-long, 2 1/2-inch-wide log. Transfer both logs to prepared baking sheet, spacing apart. Whisk egg white in small bowl until foamy; brush over top and sides of each dough log.
- Bake logs until golden brown (logs will spread), about 30 minutes. Cool logs completely on sheet on rack, about 25 minutes. Maintain oven temperature.
- Transfer logs to work surface; discard parchment paper. Using serrated knife, cut logs on diagonal into 1/2-inch-wide slices. Arrange slices, cut side down, on same baking sheet. Bake 12 minutes. Turn biscotti over; bake until just beginning to color, about 8 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
BISCOTTI DI PRATO
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Sift flour, sugar, one pinch of salt, baking soda and baking powder together three times. Place in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center.
- Beat three eggs and vanilla together and pour into the middle of the dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, begin to work the flour mixture into the eggs, drawing the dry ingredients from the outside to the center. The mixture will be crumbly at first, but gradually will form a soft dough. When the dough cleans the sides of the bowl, allow it to rest a minute or two. It will soften further.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and flatten to form a rectangle about six by 10 inches. Scatter almonds over the dough and roll the dough up over the almonds. Flatten the dough slightly, then cut into three equal portions. Roll each portion under the palms of your hands to form a cylinder 12 inches long. Place the three cylinders on the baking sheet.
- Beat the remaining egg with a pinch of salt and brush the egg wash over each cylinder. Bake about 20 minutes, until golden and firm to the touch.
- Place cylinders on a cutting board and slice through them at a 45-degree angle at one-half inch intervals. Remove the parchment paper from the baking sheet. Place the slices standing up on the baking sheet and return them to the oven for another 15 minutes to dry. Allow to cool, then store airtight.

BISCOTTI, TRADITIONAL ANISE
A friend's daughter gave me the original recipe years ago and the only major change I've made is using Sambuca liqueur rather than anise extract. My 3 honorary grandchildren Jerod, James and Shiloh all teethed on these and their Mom Sarah request them every Christmas season. These Italian dunking cookies go well with milk, coffee or tea.
