This was given to me by my very best friend; it's her mother's recipe, and a wonderful basic biscotti recipe. Very rarely do I make them the same way twice. You can add dried cherries, cranberries, walnuts, toasted almonds, chocolate, white chocolate or cinnamon chips, or nothing at all -- It's good enough to stand on its own. I also change the flavorings and use almond or vanilla extracts. These will keep for a couple of weeks (if you're lucky) in your cookie jar!

Ingredients

  • white sugar: 1 cup
  • butter: 0.25 cup (softened)
  • eggs: 3 piece
  • egg yolk: 1 piece
  • ½ teaspoons vanilla extract: 1 piece
  • ½ cups all-purpose flour: 2 piece
  • baking powder: 2 tsp

  2. Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy; beat in eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Whisk flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture to form a fairly sticky dough.
