when i went to napa recently, i brought back some vanilla lavendar shortbread cookies. they were delicious with tea, so i was inspired to make a recipe i have always wanted to try...
ingredients:
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 T grated orange zest
1 1/2 t vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 1/2 cup flour
1 t baking powder
1/4 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips
mix sugar, oil, orange zest, vanilla and eggs together in large bowl. stir in dry ingredients in batches and knead dough on floured surface.
shape dough in long narrow rectangle.
bake 25-30 minutes at 350. when toothpick comes out clean, cut loaf into crosswise 1 inch slices. place cut sides down on cookie sheet until crisp and golden.
for extra decadence, you can even dip half the biscotti into melted chocolate.
