LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Line large cookie sheet with foil. In large bowl, stir butter, lemonade concentrate, lemon peel, lemon extract and eggs until well mixed. Add remaining ingredients; stir until soft dough forms.
  • 2 Divide dough in half. On cookie sheet, shape each 1/2 of dough into a 12x2-inch log.
  • 3 Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 15 minutes.

My baby sister asked me to make some biscotti with my Christmas cookie selection, "something with dried cherries" she said. I made these and my husband, who is not a biscotti fan, could NOT keep his hands out of the cookie jar! The best biscotti I have ever had. Yum! If there is anyone out there who wants to try a biscotti recipe for the first time, I suggest this one - a guaranteed hit.

I've made this recipe 4 times and it is delicious and my family and friends love it. I wonder, though, how to shape the dough into logs. It's so sticky. Is there a trick I don't know about? Also, the ends of the cookie splinter off when i cut them. I cool them according to directions but still have probems keeping them in tact. Any suggestions? BUT, if you get everything right or wrong, they are a wonderful treat!

I used dried blueberries. Everyone seemed to like them and they were gone in a flash.
