From my sister, photo and recipe of our father's biscotti (which she served this weekend at her memorial party for our father)
Other recipes for Sicilian cookies from my family:
Daniele’s Biscotti
Mix Together:
1-1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
2 tsp ground anise
½ cup chopped nuts (hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
Blend Separately:
½ cup sugar
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
¼ cup honey, room temperature
2 tbsp melted butter
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture. Blend thoroughly.
Split dough into halves. Roll each one into a log to fit your cookie sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until firm.
Cool so you can cut. Then slice into ½-inch diagonals.
Return to the oven for 10-12 minutes.
Optional: When the biscotti are still warm, brush with Grand Marnier or another liqueur of choice.
