Biscotti make a great holiday gift. The best way to package them is in a clear plastic airtight container; they store longer. To personalize the gift, use paint markers and ribbon to decorate. Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup sugar |
1/4 cup sesame seeds |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 large eggs |
1 large egg white |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3 tablespoons grated orange rind |
1 tablespoon thawed orange juice concentrate, undiluted |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°.
2. Combine first 7 ingredients in a bowl. Stir well; set aside. Combine eggs, egg white, vanilla, orange rind, and orange juice in a large bowl, and stir with a whisk. Add flour mixture, and stir until well-blended.
3. Turn dough out onto a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Shape dough into two 13-inch-long rolls; flatten to 1-inch thickness. Bake at 325° for 25 minutes or until firm to the touch. Remove rolls from baking sheet; let cool 10 minutes on a wire rack.
4. Reduce oven temperature to 275°.
5. Cut each roll diagonally into 18 (1/2-inch) slices. Place slices, cut sides down, on baking sheet. Bake at 275° for 40 minutes (cookies will be slightly soft in center but will harden as they cool). Remove from baking sheet; let cool completely on wire rack.
