Italian bisuits
Serves four
Ingredients
3 eggs
1/2 orange juice
1 cup sugar
1 cup oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 3/4 cups flour
2 tbsp. baking powder
almonds chopped (optional)
Method
In a large bowl, beat eggs, orange juice, and sugar.
Add oil, mix well.
Add salt, flour, and baking powder, mix with a wooden spoon.
Add vanilla extract and chopped almonds.
Shape dough into two 12" half moon logs and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F until golden (about 15 minutes). Remove from oven and let cool for awhile. Cut cookies 1/2 inch thick and re-cook at 450 degrees F until golden on both sides.
The secret is in cooking the biscuits twice.
