BUTTER PECAN BISCOTTI
I love biscotti and this recipe is very easy since it starts with a cake mix and biscotti is always much lower in fat than cookies so it's a win/win for me.

Steps:
- 1. BLEND cake mix, eggs, butter, water and almond extract in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed until evenly moistened. Stir in pecans. Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
- 2. HEAT oven to 325°F. Coat two baking sheets with no-stick cooking spray. Divide dough in half on lightly floured surface. Shape each half into a 14 x 1 1/2-inch loaf. Place on prepared baking sheets.
- 3. BAKE 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and slightly firm. Cool 5 minutes. With sharp serrated knife, cut loaves diagonally into 3/4-inch thick slices. Place cut side down on same baking sheets.
- 4. BAKE 15 to 20 minutes longer or until lightly browned, turning halfway through baking time. Remove from baking sheets to wire racks to cool completely.

Tips:
- To make the perfect biscotti dough, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, making the biscotti light and crisp.
- Make sure to add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the dough from curdling.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the biscotti tough.
- When shaping the biscotti, make sure to roll them out evenly. This will help them to bake evenly.
- Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown and crisp. This will help to ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the biscotti cool completely before slicing them. This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
