Ingredients

How to make it

  • Whip sugar and vegetable oil until very well combined.
  • Gradually add eggs, vanilla and orange zest, beating well after each addition. Mixture will thicken and become very smooth.
  • Combine remaining dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then stir into egg mixture.
  • Mix well, but not excessively.
  • Divide dough in half.
  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • With wet hands, form each half into a log, about 2" shorter than the length of your pan and 2 1/2" wide.
  • Bake until well golden, about 25-30 minutes.
  • Turn oven down to 250ºF.
  • Cool logs until you can comfortably handle them.
  • Slice on a bias, about 1.5" wide.
  • Lay cut-side up on a baking pan and bake again for 40 minutes.
  • After 40 minutes, turn oven off and leave cookies inside to cool.

    Ah! So glad you liked them!
    This is a recipe that can really easily be changed according to your taste - the original was actually almond flavor!

    I made this today, and let me say... I LOVE IT!!! I'm surprising my hubbster with it when he comes home from work. He always has to turn down biscotti because too many are made with almonds and that's his allergy.
