These Italian anisette biscotti are crispy cookies with a light licorice flavor. I have loved them since I was a child. They go so well with milk, tea, coffee or espresso as they are a great dunking cookie! They are also very easy to make. I encourage you to try the recipe!

Ingredients:
3 Eggs
1 cup Sugar
1 cup Oil (vegetable or light olive oil)
3 cups Flour (all-purpose)
3 tsp Baking Powder
1 Tbsp Anise Extract (OR 2 tsp anise seed OR 2 tsp Anisette liqueur)
1 Egg White for glaze (Optional)

In electric mixer, beat eggs, add sugar and oil Mix.
In small bowl, mix flour and baking powder together. Add in 2/3 of the flour mixture. Add anisette. Spread remaining flour mixture onto board.
Pour mixture in center. Knead dough. Shape into strips and place on
ungreased cookie sheet (I use parchment paper). Flatten strips a little and brush with egg white to make them turn golden brown.
Bake on middle rack on 350 degrees F. for 10-15 minutes (until bottom is light brown). Or place 2 cookie sheets at a time and Convection Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet. Cut diagonally when still a little warm. Place back on cookie sheet and bake again for 15-20 minutes (or 12 min. convection bake) until golden on each side. You need to be close to oven so they don’t burn.
Store in airtight container for several weeks or in freezer for months.
