Directions
- The "Bis" means twice and "Cotti" means cooked - and our recipe for these crisp, cruncy cookies does just which. They are best when dipped in warm coffee, cocoa or possibly lowfat milk for a few seconds till softened, then eaten right away.
- Preheat oven to 400^. Toast nuts till browned, about 8 min; let cold.
- Use metal blade in food processor work bowl to finely chop zest and granulated sugar, about 60 seconds. Add in brown sugar, extracts, margarine and Large eggs; process till combined, about 5 seconds. Add in nuts and dry ingredients and pulse till combined, about 12 times.
- Transfer dough to floured surface; roll into two 12" logs. Pat logs to 2 1/2" wide. Place 3" apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Beat egg white slightly and brush over surface of logs. Bake 20 min till hard and lightly browned. Remove from oven; reduce heat to 325^. While still hot, cut logs diagonally into 1/2" slices, lay cut side down on sheets. Bake 15 min more till dry. Cold on whire racks.
- Store in plastic food storage bag or possibly tin for up to 1 month.
