Steps:

• In a mixer bowl using a paddle attachment, mix all of the ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.
• Place dough onto a floured surface.
• Divide evenly into two pieces.
• Roll the dough into two 12 inch logs.
• Place on a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet and pat the logs down flat, approximately 3 1/2 inches wide.
• Bake the logs until they spring back when pressed lightly (start checking at 10 minutes).
• Allow the logs to cool, then using a bread knife, cut into biscotti about 1/2 inch thick.
• Arrange the biscotti on the baking sheet, flat on their side.
• Bake again, at 350º F, for 8 more minutes. Let cool.

ANISE WALNUT BISCOTTI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F ( 190 degrees C ).
• In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar Gradually add the vanilla and eggs while mixing. Sift together the flour and baking powder; stir into the egg mixture. For plain biscotti, do not add anything else (see Cook's Note). Stir in the anise extract and anise seed. Add walnuts if desired.
• Wet or grease your hands and shape dough out into 4 logs as long as your baking sheet will allow. Pat each one to about 3/4 inch in height, and 3 inches wide. Brush with beaten egg yolks.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, until golden brown. Slice logs at an angle, cutting pieces into 1/2 to 3/4-inch wide cookies. Place slices back onto the cookie sheet, standing upright, if possible; leave a gap between the slices. Return to the oven and bake until cookies are dry and lightly toasted, about 10 minutes more.

CAPPUCCINO BISCOTTI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F and place rack in center of oven.
• Toast hazelnuts for 10 - 15 minutes or until the skins start to separate from the nut. Remove from oven and place in a clean tea towel to steam for about 5 minutes. Rub the hazelnuts in the towel to remove the skins. Let cool and then coarsely chop. Set aside.
• Reduce oven temperature to 300F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl whisk together the eggs and vanilla extract. Set aside.
• In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer) beat the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, spices, and espresso powder until combined.
• Gradually add the egg mixture and beat until a dough forms, add chopped nuts and chocolate chips about halfway through.
• With floured hands divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface roll each half of dough into a log about 10 inches (25 cm) long and 2 inches (5 cm) wide.
• Transfer logs to the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 3 inches (7.5 cm) apart, and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until firm to the touch (logs will spread during baking, giving the characteristic biscotti shape).
• Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
• On a cutting board, with a serrated knife, cut each log crosswise, into 3/4 inch (2 cm) slices. Be careful when moving these to the cutting board to ensure the logs don't break.
• Arrange the slices on the baking sheet, cut side up, and bake 10 minutes. Turn slices over, and bake another 10 minutes or until firm to the touch.
• Remove from oven and let cool. Store in an airtight container.
