Cantuccini Biscotti

from lidl

Ingredients for approx. 40 pieces:
• 100g butter
• 125g sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• 2 eggs
• 250g plain flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 150g roughly chopped almonds

Method
Whisk butter, sugar and salt in a bowl until creamy. Add the eggs, flour, baking powder and almonds to the bowl and mix together to form a smooth dough. Roll out the dough to 3-4cm thick logs, carefully place them on a tray covered with baking paper and press them down a little. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 175°C for approx. 20mins. Let the rolls cool down and cut with knife in 2cm thick slices. Place them on the tray again - cut side on top - and bake for a further 12-15mins until golden.
