Time 1h1m

Yield 42

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups white sugar
3 eggs
2 tablespoons rum
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
1 ½ teaspoons coconut extract
1 cup shelled pistachio nuts
½ cup chopped dried pineapple
½ cup sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 1 1/3 cups of sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each one. Stir in the rum, pineapple juice and coconut extract until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the batter. Stir in the pistachio nuts, pineapple and coconut until evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate for about 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two cookie sheets.
  • Divide the dough into four equal parts. Form each piece of dough into a 12 inch long log shape on a lightly floured surface. Place two logs onto each cookie sheet, and pat down until they are about 3 inches wide. There should be at least 2 inches of space between each log.
  • Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm but not crisp. Remove from the oven, and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes.
  • Place the biscotti bars on a cutting board, and use a serrated knife to cut into 3/4 inch wide diagonal slices. Return the slices to the baking sheets cut side down. Return to the oven. Bake for 8 minutes, then turn the cookies over, and bake for an additional 8 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Cool completely, then store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • When choosing a pineapple for this slaw, look for one that is ripe and juicy. A ripe pineapple will have a sweet, fragrant smell and will give slightly when pressed.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the carrots and cabbage by hand. Just be sure to grate them finely, so that they blend well with the other ingredients.
  • To make the dressing, you can use either store-bought or homemade mayonnaise. If you're using homemade mayonnaise, be sure to make it with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • If you don't have any coconut milk on hand, you can use unsweetened almond milk or skim milk instead.
  • This slaw is best served chilled, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Nutty Pina Colada Slaw is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet, tangy, or somewhere in between, this slaw is sure to please everyone at your table.
