ANISETTE BISCOTTI



Anisette Biscotti image

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.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality anise extract. Look for an extract that is made with real anise seeds, not artificial flavoring.
  • If you don't have anise extract, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of ground anise seeds.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before slicing and baking. This will help the biscotti hold their shape.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown and firm to the touch. If they are too soft, they will be difficult to dip in the chocolate glaze.
  • Let the biscotti cool completely before dipping them in the chocolate glaze. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • Store the biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
