Title: Bill's biscotti
 Categories: Biscotti
      Yield: 24 Servings
 
      1 c  Butter or margarine;
           -softened, (2 sticks)
  1 1/2 c  Sugar
      4 lg Eggs
      1 tb Anise extract
      1 tb Amaretto; more to taste
      5 c  Flour
      1 tb Baking powder
    1/2 ts Salt
      2 ts Orange peel; grated
 
  Heat oven to 375F.
  
  In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar; add eggs, amaretto and
  extract and beat until light and fluffy.
  
  Mix together remaining ingredients and gradually incorporate into
  liquid mixture, initially with mixer and finally by hand. Dough will
  be sticky.
  
  Place half of dough on oiled waxed-paper and roll into a log; unwrap
  on to lightly oiled baking sheet; vegetable spray works well for
  oiling both waxed-paper and baking sheet. Repeat with other half of
  dough. Final shaping can be done with an oiled spatula; rolls will
  tend to flatten. Bake until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
  
  Remove from oven and cool 10 minutes. Slice logs diagonally about 1/2
  inch thick. Place slices on baking sheets and return to oven, baking
  for 10 minutes at 300F; turn pieces and bake an additional 10 minutes.
  
  For extra dry and crisp cookies, turn off heat and leave in oven until
  cooled.
  
  Freezes well.
