Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 45

Number Of Ingredients 8

750 g almond flour (approx 6 ½ cups)
450 g sugar (approx 2 cups 2 tbsp)
6 egg whites
2 tsp honey
1 tsp almond extract
2-3 cups confectioners sugar (for shaping and dusting)
Candied Cherries (assorted colors)
Whole Almonds

Steps:

  • In a huge bowl mix almond flour and sugar.
  • In a separate bowl beat egg whites with a whisk just until foamy.Start adding beaten egg whites, leaving about 1 egg white for later. Mix with a spatula.Add honey and almond flavor extract.
  • Mix the dough with your hands scooping all the dry ingredients from the bottom of the bowl. The dough should be soft but not too sticky.If the dough feels hard and is not coming together add the remaining egg white.
  • Dust your hands with confectioners sugar and take a good chunk of the dough. Roll it lightly on a work surface dusted with confectioners sugar.Cut into about ½ x ½ inch pieces. If you have a kitchen scale you can check each piece by weight. It should be about an ounce or slightly over an ounce.
  • Roll each piece of the dough in your palms to form a nice round cookie shape. Set aside on a dusted with confectioners sugar work surface or on a tray.Divide and roll the remaining dough.Roll each cookie in confectioners sugar. NOTE: Make sure to sift it before use to avoid any lumps.
  • Arrange cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Decorate with candied cherry halves, whole almonds or simply pinch a cookie with your fingers to form an irregular shape - called pizzicotti.
  • Bake in a preheated to 350F/ 175C oven for 15-20 minutes.
  • After 10 minute mark check on your cookies to adjust baking time. It mainly depends on your oven. The cookies should start to get a light color on top and on the bottom.

THE BEST ALMOND BISCOTTI RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I don't know where my mother got this recipe but it produces the best biscotti I have ever had- and I am Italian so I have eaten A LOT of biscotti. Also, I will be publishing the chocolate version of this recipe which is also to die for. I've also made these with 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips and 2/4 cups hazelnuts in place of the almonds. For a sweeter variety, I have also mixed 1/2 cup almonds with 1/4 cup butterscotch chips. I have also made them plain without nuts when I've been low on ingredients. You can't mess up this recipe- it's fool-proof!.

BISCOTTI RECIPE - NYT COOKING
These classic Italian cookies get their signature crispness from being twice-baked: First, the dough is cooked in logs, cut into slices, then baked again. Because they travel and keep well, a pile of them makes an excellent gift wrapped in a cellophane bag and tied with a ribbon. Feel free to experiment with add-ins: Sub in hazelnuts or pistachios for the almonds. Add mini chocolate chips or dried cranberries, or a teaspoon of citrus zest. Or take the cookies over the top by drizzling with melted chocolate, glazing with icing or dusting with sprinkles. You do you.
