PUMPKIN SPICE BISCOTTI
Equipment
- 2 Cookie Sheets
- 2 Cooling Racks
- 1 Mixing Bowl
- 3 Parchment Papers
- 1 Serrated Knife
Ingredients
- 2 3/4 Cups All-Purpose Flour
- 3/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 3/4 Cup Packed Brown Sugar
- 1.5 tsp. Baking Powder
- 1 tsp. Salt
- 1 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1 Egg Beaten
- 1 Egg Yolk Beaten
- 1/2 Cup Canned Pumpkin
- 1/3 Cup Butter Melted
- 3/4 Cup Pecans Finely Chopped
- 3/4 Cups Dried Cranberries Chopped
- Melted White Chocolate Chips I Used Ghirardelli"s (Melt in double boiler)
Instructions
- In a bowl mix the first six ingredients (through Pumpkin Spice)
- Add Egg and Egg Yolk
- Add Pumpkin and Melted Butter
- Add Pecans and Cranberries, mix together
- Knead with your hands forming a ball
- Divide Ball into 3 equal portions. Shape each portion into a 8 inch log. Flatten the rolls to about 3.5 inches wide. Place 2 on one parchment lined cookie sheet and the other on one parchment lined cookie sheet
- Have oven set to 325. If you have 2 ovens start them both.
- Bake on separate oven racks 25 minutes or until rolls are firm and dark brown. Rotate the cookie sheets halfway through the baking time. Cool on sheets on wire cookie racks for 15 minutes.
- Place rolls on a cutting board. Use a serrated nice to diagonally cut rolls in 1/2 inch slices.
- Lay all the slices on a cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes, then turn the slices over. Bake another 10 minutes. They need to be golden brown and crisp so you may need to keep turning and baking until they are.
- When they are done remove from the oven and cool on the cookie racks.
- I melted white chocolate chips in a saucepan over simmering water until the chocolate melted. I brushed some on the biscotti and sprinkled with almonds (I ran out of pecans!) and chopped cranberries.
