CINNAMON BISCOTTI WITH PISTACHIOS
Delicious cinnamon biscotti that go great with coffee or tea. Cinnamon chips (found next to chocolate chips) give it an extra burst of cinnamon. Co-workers request that I make these regularly and bring to work for the morning coffee break.

Steps:
- Make the biscotti: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, combine the room temperature butter, granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour in the milk and beat until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and beat on low speed until just combined.
- Divide the dough in half and place one portion on each prepared baking sheet. Shape each into a 3-inch wide, 8½-9-inch long flat log. Refrigerate the dough on the baking sheets for 20 minutes.
- Transfer the baking sheets to the oven and bake until the logs are lightly browned around the edges, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, 30-35 minutes, Transfer the baking sheets to wire racks and let the logs cool for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
- Carefully transfer each log to a cutting board and, using a serrated knife, slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick slices. Return the slices to the baking sheets, cut-side up, spacing evenly. Brush the slices on both sides with melted butter.
- In a small bowl, mix together the turbinado sugar and remaining 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Sprinkle over one side of the biscotti.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your biscotti. Look for fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the biscotti hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the biscotti until they are lightly browned and firm. Don't overbake them, or they will be dry and crumbly.
- Slice the biscotti while they are still warm. This will make them easier to slice and will prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the biscotti in an airtight container. They will keep for up to 2 weeks at room temperature.
