Does anyone have these cookie recipes from Maria Lo Pinto's "The Art of Italian Cooking"?
Hi
I am missing two old favorite vintage cookie (biscuit)recipes from her book....my copy went astray and I even lost my recipe file with copies there
She offered only a few cookie recipes....
**** one is called
Biscotti Zia Lena
it is made with walnuts
and the other was
a cookie flavored with anise oil
Biscotti al Anice, I think was the name
*** note: they are not biscotti as we think of them today - a toasted slice of cake turned into a rusk - they
are little cookies sliced off a log of dough, then baked
thank you so much
xxxxx
These are not her recipes, but they may be close. Hope it helps.

* 3 cups flourcookie
* 2 tsp. baking powder
* 2 eggs
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
* 1/2 cup shortening
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1/4 cup milk
* 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
* Pinch of salt

Biscotti All'anice Ingredients:
3 Eggs
2 tsp Anise extract
3/4 cup Sugar
1 pinch Salt
1 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
1/4 cup Cornstarch
1/2 tsp Baking powder
Biscotti All'anice Preparation:
PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Combine the eggs, extract, sugar and salt in a
mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer and whip with a hand
mixer set at high speed or in a heavy duty mixer fitted with the
whip. Continue whipping until the mixture is very light and increased
in volume, 6-7 minutes. While the egg mixture is whipping, combine
the flour, cornstarch and baking powder and stir to mix. Remove the
whipped eggs from the mixer and sift over the flour mixture in three
additions, folding it in after each addition with a rubber spatula.
The batter will lose most of its air and become rather stiff. Pipe
the batter, using a pastry bag with a 3/4-inch opening, but no tube,
onto a jelly roll pan lined with parchment paper or buttered wax
paper. Pipe two logs about 1 1/2 inches wide and the length of the
pan. Bake the logs about 20 minutes, until they are well risen and
golden. Remove from oven and place logs on a cutting board to cool
about 10 minutes. Using a sharp, serrated knife, slice the logs
diagonally at 1/2-inch intervals. Place the biscotti cut side down on
the pan and return them to the oven for about 10-15 minutes, until
they color lightly on the cut surfaces. Cool the biscotti on the pans
and store them in a tin between layers of wax paper.
