Authentic Italian Anise Biscotti
Ingredients
- 5 eggs
- 2 sticks butter (melted)
- 3 cups sugar
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- 5 cups flour
- 1 1/4 tsp. Anise oil
- 1 tbsp. vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F and line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix by hand until thoroughly combined into a thick dough.
- Divide dough in half.
- Place half of the dough onto jelly roll pan and form into a long, log-like shape.
- Bake in oven for about 20 min or until firm to the touch.
- Use a knife to cut the biscotti loaf into about half-inch slices. Turn each slice on its side and bake for an additional 5-8 minutes on each side. (I used a pizza stone for this step and started preparing the other half of the dough on the jelly roll pan.)
- Repeat steps 4 through 6 with other half of dough.
- Enjoy!
