Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Line a heavy large baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar and butter in a large bowl to blend. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time. Add the flour mixture and beat just until blended. Add the ground anise seed and mix well. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Form the dough into a 16-inch-long, 3-inch-wide log. Transfer the log to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until light golden, about 30 minutes. Cool 30 minutes.

Place the log on the cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut the log on a diagonal into 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the cookies cut side down on the baking sheet. Bake the cookies until pale golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a rack and cool completely.

    I added one teaspoon Orange extract, one teaspoon Anise extract, used Splenda in place of sugar, and made cookies by pinching the dough and rolling into a ball then flatten the ball with
    Three slapps and baked for ten minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet they puffed then cracked.
    DELIGHTFUL

    Great flavor and texture. Extremely easy to make. Just a hint of anise (needs a little more for my taste. Would be great with hazelnuts chopped up into batter too. Does she do anything wrong?

    ...hands down the best biscotti cookie recipe I've tried. Followed the recipe exactly with good results, used a sprinkle of flour on my hands to form the logs. I also like the suggestion about adding flax seeds, and a portion of wheat flour.
    I am making these again this morning using lemon zest & white couverture chips, hmmm maybe a few almonds, too. Grazie, Giada!
