Almond Biscotti Deliciousness

I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and modified it for my preferences:
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  •   2teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup almonds, chopped
Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, vanilla, almond extract. Mix together the dry ingredients and add to the wet. Form into two logs about 4 in wide, 12 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Then slice, turn on the side and bake again for another 10 minutes. It really helps to slice the logs with a pastry scraper.
