I made the Biscotti yesterday. It was a first for me. I have never attempted Biscotti before. The process was easy and the results were great. This recipe does not have any oil/butter in it. The Biscotti are firm and loaded with almonds. The chewy oatmeal raisin were left over from Saturday and were still tasty. I made the Ricotta drops Monday as well. I really like drop cookies. They are easy to put together and I love "dropping" them onto the cookie sheets (with parchment paper). These cookies have both lemon and orange zest. They are light and moist and do need the powdered sugar to finish them off nicely. The last cookie on the plate is the Vanilla Sable. This is one of the refrigerator cookies that I assembled last week. All I had to do today was preheat the oven, cut the cookies - any number I wanted - from the roll and bake. So easy. And these cookies are fantastic. Light, flavorful, crumbly. I like all of them but have to say that the vanilla sables are my favorite from today's offering.
Tomorrow I think I'll try another Biscotti - maybe ones with pistachios. Oh, and I went to the market for more flour and butter. There won't be old flour and butter in my house during this project.
