Mrs. P's Flavorful Biscotti
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup softened butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius. Cover a baking sheet with a heat-resistant paper product to prevent sticking.
2
Combine granulated sugar and softened butter in a large mixing container using an electric mixer until they reach a light and airy consistency; incorporate eggs, egg yolk, and a hint of vanilla flavor into the mixture.
3
Mix flour and baking powder separately in two bowls. Combine the dry ingredients with the sugar-butter mixture to form a cohesive dough that may be slightly sticky.
4
Divide the dough into two equal portions; shape each portion with your hands until they form two rectangular loaves, approximately 1 inch high at the center. Arrange these loaves on the prepared baking sheet.
5
Place the dough loaves in a preheated oven and bake until they are lightly browned, approximately 20 minutes; remove them from the oven to cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
6
Cut each loaf into thin slices using a serrated knife with a smooth, gliding motion. Place the cookie slices back onto the lined baking sheet, cut sides facing upwards.
7
Increase the oven temperature to its highest setting, 450 degrees Fahrenheit or 230 degrees Celsius. Bake the cookie slices in the preheated oven until they are golden brown, flipping them once to ensure even cooking; cook for 3-4 minutes per side.
