Biscotti con miele
3 uova
1 chilo miele
8 onge zucchero
1 limone grattugioto
1 orangio grattugioto
4 tazzi mantorle
2 cucchinai carbonato
1 cucchinno Magic
Directions
o Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
o Mix ingredients and work into biscotti-style dough (should be quite hard, so a touch more flour than usual should be used).
o Divide dough into 2 or 3 logs (the width should be about 3 to 4 inches, the height about 1 1/2 inches, the length of the logs can vary).
o Place logs on greased cookie sheets (or ones lined with parchment paper).
o Bake until biscotti are ready -- about 20 minutes.
o Cool.
o Cut with a sharp knife into slices -- about 1/2 inch thick.
