Cookies - Honey Almond Biscotti

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 3/4 cup almonds, finely ground
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 3/4 cup whole, unblanched, almonds
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/3 cup water
  

Instructions:

Combine first 7 ingredients. Add honey & water. Stir until stiff dough forms (may need to add more water). Divide dough in half & roll each half into a 15" log. Line baking sheet with parchment paper (to help prevent burning, use a double baking sheet if you can). Place biscotti logs, well apart, on paper. Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes, until well risen, firm & golden. Be sure to bake fully. Cool logs slightly & cut into 1/2 “ diagonal slices. Return biscotti to pan, cut side down; bake for 15 minutes until dry & lightly colored. Makes about 60.
