- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside. Grease 2 baking sheets.

Cut into 3/4-inch thick slices using a serrated knife, and place cut-side-down onto the baking sheets. Return to the oven, and bake 5 to 10 minutes until the bottoms turn golden brown.

ANISETTE TOAST (ITALIAN BISCOTTI)
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease and flour a deep (about 1-2 inch deep) cookie sheet (such as a jelly roll pan). Mix the oil and sugar in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl mix the eggs, vanilla, and Anisette. Add this to the sugar/oil mixture. Then add the baking powder and salt to the sugar/oil/egg mixture. Mix well. Place the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour the sugar/oil/egg mixture into the flour and mix till well combined. Add in the nuts. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth it out. Bake at 350ºF until light brown on top and firm in the center - about 35 minutes. Once baked, cut into long, narrow slices and toast, spread out on the cookie sheet, on all sides in a 300ºF oven until crunchy (toasting time may be vary between 10-20 minutes, depending on how moist the cookies are). Be careful not to burn them. For a chocolate dipped Biscotti, melt semi-sweet chocolate and shortening over a double boiler, and dip the cooled cookies on one side into the chocolate. Place on wax paper and allow chocolate to set.
Tips:
- Use a good quality anisette liqueur. It will make a big difference in the flavor of the toast.
- Slice the bread thinly. This will help it to toast evenly and prevent it from burning.
- Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy. This will give it a nice flavor and texture.
- Spread the anisette butter on the toast while it is still hot. This will help the butter to melt and soak into the bread.
- Serve the toast immediately. It is best when it is hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Anisette toast is a simple but delicious treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack, give anisette toast a try. You won't be disappointed!
