Savory Parmesan Biscotti Recipe

Makes

24

Cornmeal is added to increase the texture and flavor. These crisp, savory biscotti are great with a glass of red wine before dinner. I also serve them with salad or break them up into large chunks as croutons. Why not !?!

bullet 1 Cup Pine Nuts, Coarsely Chopped and Toasted* 
bullet 1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
bullet 1/2 Cup of Yellow Cornmeal
bullet 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
bullet 1 Cup Fresh Grated Parmesan Cheese
bullet 1/2 Teaspoon Dried Rosemary, finely ground
bullet 1/8 Teaspoon Salt
bullet 1/4 Cup Butter, Softened
bullet 2 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
bullet 1/3 Cup of Sugar
bullet 2 Medium Eggs

Mix together the flour, corn meal, baking powder, rosemary and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar. Add the mustard, parmesan cheese and the eggs. Add the dry ingredients and continue mixing until well blended. Fold in the nuts.

On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough in half, and form two loaves about 11 inches long and 2 inches wide and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes in a preheated 375 degree F. oven or until they are slightly golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then using a serrated knife cut into 3/4 inch slices. Place these slices back on the baking sheet, and cook an additional 5-10 minutes or until the cookies are golden in color and dry. Cool, and store in an airtight container.

NOTE: If the dough seems too sticky to form into logs, refrigerate for one hour first.

**To toast pine nuts, spread on baking sheet. Bake at 350°F. for 8 to 10 minutes or until toasted.
