Amaretto biscotti
Amaretto biscotti is a delicious Italian almond-flavored cookie that is baked twice to give it a crunchy texture. It's often enjoyed with coffee or dessert wine.
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup butter softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 tablespoon Amaretto liqueur
- 1/2 cup almonds chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg, vanilla extract, almond extract, and Amaretto liqueur together.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
- Fold in the chopped almonds until evenly distributed in the dough.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal parts and shape each into a log about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the logs in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Remove the logs from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Place the sliced biscotti back on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are crisp and lightly browned.
- Let the biscotti cool completely before enjoying with a cup of coffee or dessert wine.
- Enjoy!
