Yield MAKES ABOUT 2 DOZEN

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large egg
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon brandy
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon (generous) salt
1/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup whole almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease heavy large baking sheet. Using hand-held electric mixer, beat egg and sugar in medium bowl until very thick and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in brandy and vanilla. Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt into egg mixture and blend well. Mix in raisins and almonds. Spoon dough onto prepared sheet to form 10- to 11-inch strip. Using moistened fingertips, shape dough into neat 11-inch-long by 2 1/2-inch-wide log.
  • Bake until log just begins to brown and feels firm to touch, about 20 minutes. Cool cookie log on sheet 15 minutes. Maintain oven temperature.
  • Transfer cookie log to work surface. Using serrated knife, cut crosswise into 1/3-inch-wide slices. Arrange slices on same baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Turn slices over. Bake until beginning to color, about 8 minutes longer. Cool cookies completely on baking sheet (cookies will become very crisp). (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)

Tips:

  • Using a food processor or blender can make the dough come together quickly and evenly.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little more almond milk or water, one tablespoon at a time, until it comes together.
  • If the dough is too wet, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it is no longer sticky.
  • 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. This will ensure that they are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
  • Let the biscotti cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. This will help them stay fresh and crispy.
