Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 2 tsp anise extract
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- Dash of salt
Preparation:
Preheat your oven to 350F. Mix eggs, anise, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Whip until very light, about 6 minutes (with a high speed hand mixer). In another bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch and baking powder. Fold together the egg mixture and flour mixture. Using a pastry bag (3/4 inch opening), pipe two logs of batter onto a greased pan. Logs should be 1 1/2 inches wide. Bake for 20 minutes, until golden. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Use a serrated knife to slice the logs into 1/2 inch slices. Place the slices into the oven, and bake for another 12 minutes.Makes 48 biscotti
