These biscotti are easy, quick, and my favorite Italian cookies. My friend at work gave me this simple, no-frills recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon anise extract , or 3 drops anise oil
- 3.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
Instructions

1
Gather all ingredients.
-
2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
-
3
Beat sugar, oil, eggs, and anise extract together in a medium bowl until well-blended. Combine flour and baking powder in a separate bowl; stir into egg mixture to form a heavy dough.
-
4
Divide dough into two equal pieces. Form each piece into a log the length of a cookie sheet. Place one log on each of the prepared sheets; and press dough down to 1/2-inch thickness.
-
5
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer logs to wire racks; let sit until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes.
-
6
Slice each log crosswise into about eighteen 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place slices cut-sides up back on the cookie sheets.
-
7
Bake until lightly toasted and golden brown, 6 to 10 minutes per side.

Serve and enjoy!

Swedish Tea Ring with Pecans
These are made like cinnamon rolls; however, you make a circle with the dough log and cut only part way through, turning each piece partially on its side to make a beautiful design.
Eagle Brand Peanut Butter Fudge
A favorite peanut butter fudge with condensed milk. The family will go wild for this peanutty treat. Peanut butter, chopped peanuts, and white chocolate really make it special.
Bow Ties with Sausage, Tomatoes, and Cream
A delicious creamy sausage pasta dish. A friend gave this recipe to me a few years back, and my family can't seem to get enough of it. It sounds strange with cream in it, but that just enhances the flavor and texture. This is a very easy recipe.
