These were very simple to make and delicious. I only had anise oil, so I used 1 tsp (as it’s pretty strong) and it was definite enough. So happy to have found this recipe. Thank you.

OK so I have made these 3 times now and every time they come out perfect!! What a great recipe!! Just love it…I am going to try and make some chocolate ones this morning using this base recipe!! Wonderful recipe thank you for sharing it!
I cannot tell you how much I LOVE this recipe!! I have made chocolate and gingerbread biscotti with this “base” recipe and every one comes out great…For the chocolate all you have to do is don’t add the anise extract and add 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of a good quality cocoa, DECREASE the flour by 1/4 cup… and then follow the recipe as usual…the gingerbread was a little more to it…instead of the white sugar did half white and half brown sugar, added 3 TLB of molasses…1½ teaspoon ground cinnamon 1½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¾ teaspoon ground allspice, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon black pepper and a pinch of cardamon…they are so yummy!! The hardest part about this recipe is the shaping, but DON’T add more flour, the dough is supposed to be sticky! Wow so glad I found this recipe!

4 years later and I still love this recipe…just made them again this morning…just a hint! Make sure you beat your eggs really well, you want them foamy…it makes for a lighter cookie!!
