Ingredients:
1 cup - Florida Crystals® Organic Brown Sugar
1 cup - Florida Crystals® Organic Granulated Sugar
1/3 cup - vegetable oil
2 - large eggs
2 tablespoons - water
2 teaspoons - cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon - cloves
2 teaspoons - baking powder
21/2 cups - all-purpose flour
2 cups - sliced almonds
1 - additional egg for glazing

Preparation:
In large mixing bowl, stir together brown and granulated sugars. With heavy mixing spoon, stir in vegetable oil, eggs and water. In medium size bowl, mix together cinnamon, cloves, baking powder and flour. Stir dry ingredients into wet mixture, one third at a time, until well mixed. Add almonds and mix well. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill for one hour (or overnight).

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease hands with vegetable oil and roll dough into 4 logs, 8 to 9 inches long, approximately 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and place on lightly greased cookie sheets, 2 logs per sheet. In small bowl, lightly beat remaining egg with a fork. Using a pastry brush, baste cookie logs with beaten egg. Bake cookies on middle oven rack for 20 minutes. Allow to cool and
then slice diagonally into 1-inch slices.

Serving Quantity: 4 dozen


Quick Tip:
These are not typical biscotti. Instead of being dry, these cookies are moist and chewy. Surprisingly, they are baked only once.
