Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup stick margarine or butter -- softened

1/2 teaspoon anise extract

2 large eggs

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup chopped pecans

Cooking spray

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

 

1. Preheat oven to 350deg.

 

2. Beat the first 4 ingredients at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended.

Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine

the flour, baking soda, and salt, and gradually add to the sugar mixture,

beating until the mixture is well-blended. Stir in the chopped pecans. 3. Turn

dough out onto a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Shape dough into a

12-inch-long roll; flatten to a 1/2inch thickness. Sift powdered sugar over top

of dough. 4. Bake at 350deg for 35 minutes. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheet. Cut

roll diagonally into 24 (3/4-inch) slices. Place slices, cut sides down, on

baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes (biscotti will be slightly soft in

center but will harden as they cool). Remove from baking sheet; cool completely

on a wire rack. Yield: 2 dozen (serving size: 1 biscotto).
