Recipe Introduction
You
can add raisins or chopped dates, figs, pistachios, cranberries or any
dried
fruit
List of Ingredients
1 box (1 pound, 5 ounces) brownie mix
3 cups (12 ounces whole almonds or: walnut halves or pecan halves)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 Tablespoons water or: milk
3/4 teaspoon almond extract
Recipe
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Coat 13x9x 2 inch baking pan with
nonstick
cooking
spray. Line bottom and sides of pan with foil, leaving 2 incles
overhand on
the short sides.
In a large bowl, stir together the brownie mix and almonds (if
brownie
mix contains
packet of chocolate syrup, save the strup for another use, such as
drizzling
over ice cream
or slices of pound cake garnished with berries.) stir the eggs, water
and
almond extract
into the browning mix, (See #1 after the Method.) until ingredients
are
moistened and a
stiff batter forms. With a spatula, spread the batter in the prepared
pan in
an even layer
(see #2)
Bake in 350degree oven 35 minutes or until the cake is firm to
touch in
the center.
Using the foil overhang, carefully remove the brownie from pan to a
wire
rack. Let the
brownie cool for 5 minutes.
Cut brownie in half lenghthwise, scoring the surface with a
serrated
knife and
completing the cutting through with a large, sharp knife (#3) Then cut
crosswise, into 3/4
inch thick slices. Place brownies, cut side down, on large baking
sheets (#4)
Bake in 350 degree oven 23 to 25 minutes, until biscotti are crisp.
Transfer
biscotti to wire rack; let cool.
Makes about 2 dozen biscotti at $3.21 per dozen. Unless you got the
cake
mix or
sale with coupons...LOL
