How to Make Biscotti, Part 1

Making biscotti is no big deal with my quick and easy approach. You can customize the recipe to suit your taste, and you can customize your approach depending on what equipment you have on hand. Best of all, it's a low-fat, inexpensive treat. And, if you, like me, are also a woodworker, you can put your homemade cookies into a homemade bowl for the ultimate gift.

If you think of biscotti as low-fat cookies, you can put whatever you want into them. We have a wheat bran, chocolate chip, raisin version that is baked the same way. Any dough that you can shape into a log is a good candidate. I love the fact that my basic recipe uses no added butter or oil, just eggs, which at least give nutrition for the calories.

Just regular, all-purpose flour.

I've never used raisins or sesame seeds in my recipe. I think I will just try yours and see how they are!!! They look so delicious!
