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. 1

    Gather all ingredients.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.

  3. 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. 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. 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. 6

    Slice each log crosswise into about eighteen 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place slices cut-sides up back on the cookie sheets.

  7. 7

    Bake until lightly toasted and golden brown, 6 to 10 minutes per side.

  8. 8

    Serve and enjoy!
