Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup dried currants

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and rosemary. Set aside.

Using an electric mixer and a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, incorporating each egg fully before adding the next. Add the vanilla. and gently stir in the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in currants.

Cut dough in half and shape into 2 logs. They should be about a 12-inches long; and 1-inch thick.

Bake until just starting to brown at the edges, about 35 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets. While the biscotti logs are still warm, cut each log into 1/2-inch wide slices on the diagonal. Place the slices back on the baking sheet (using 2 baking sheets if necessary to fit all the slices). Bake for 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the baking sheets from the oven. Turn the biscotti over and bake for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, until the biscotti are crisp.

Let the biscotti cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet(s). Serve when cooled to room temperature, or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

    Sooo good, and easy!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These are a wonderful base biscotti. I feel like you can add anything to them! I didn't have currants so I chopped up 3/4... cup of almonds and used that plus I increased the vanilla to about 2 1/2 tablespoons (amazing, but I LOVE vanilla). I did not use the rosemary. They turned out great, plus I covered half in chocolate. Oh my goodness!! I can't wait to make them again. :)Read more

    Great...and easy!

    I don't know why these are listed as "intermediate". The recipe is very simple and very tasty. The flavor combination of... the rosemary and currants is great. Sit down with a cup of your favorite tea and enjoy!Read more

    Biscotti = Mondel Bread

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is almost exactly the same recipe as my grandmother's mondel bread recipe - she used vegetable oil rather than butter... but they look exactly the same. We use chopped nuts and almond extract sometimes. Other times we use golden raisins. I haven't tried the rosemary but I will try it the next time I make it.Read more

    The best biscotti I have ever eaten! Tip: I would use an electric bread knife to cut the biscotti next time, I seemed to... have trouble finding a good knife. Yummy!Read more

    Unbelievably delicious and simple!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This recipie is outstanding. It is both savory and sweet and very easy to make. I made them for my office and they fought... over them. It is a great foundation for many variations. Omit the currants and rosemary and add dried cherries and almonds! FantasticRead more

    Yum!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I just finished making these for the first time. I wasn't sure how rosemary was going to taste in biscotti, but they are... absolutely delicious! Even though the recipe says intermediate, I think they were very easy. Enjoy!Read more
