MOM'S MANDELBROT

This is the Jewish equivalent to biscotti. It was handed down through three generations. I added the mini chocolate chips. The cookies are twice baked, first in logs and then in slices. Stored in an airtight container, these will keep for about two weeks.

Time P1DT30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 eggs
1 cup oil or butter
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup chopped natural almonds
Additional options: lemon or orange zest, cocoa, other kinds of nuts, almond extract, cinnamon sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In an electric mixer beat eggs well and then add and beat well the oil, sugar and vanilla. Sift together salt, flour and baking powder, add to egg mixture and beat until just incorporated. Add nuts and any other additions at this time, fold in but don?t over-mix. The dough will be sticky, refrigerate for a few hours or longer, if needed. Coat hands with flour and then divide dough into thirds and shape each into long rolls 3 inches wide on a cookie sheet. They can be left straight or shaped into half moons. Bake for 30 minutes or until a little golden.
  • Remove from the oven, slice into 1/2-inch slices with a serrated knife and return to cookie sheet. Either lay them flat on the cookie sheet or stand them on their ends. They may be sprinkled with cinnamon sugar at this point. Return to the oven and turn off the heat. Leave them in oven until oven cools or overnight. The longer one leaves them in the oven the harder they will become.

TRADITIONAL JEWISH MANDELBROT (MANDEL BREAD) RECIPE



Traditional Jewish Mandelbrot (Mandel Bread) Recipe image

Family recipes aren't as set in stone as we all like to think. Like for example, this mandel bread. I called my mom for the recipe, which I'd attributed to my Grandma...

Time 1h45m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
About 1 cup golden raisins, mini chocolate chips, and walnuts or a combination of the three (Malgieri's recipe calls for almonds, and no raisins or chocolate chips.)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Malgieri calls for a teaspoon of almond extract in addition to the vanilla extract, but I skip it.)
1/2 cup grapeseed or other neutral oil
1/2 cup sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon cinnamon for finishing

Steps:

  • Set rack in middle level of the oven and preheat to 350°F.
  • In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; stir well to mix.
  • In another bowl, whisk eggs by hand until well mixed. Add sugar and whisk until smooth. Whisk in extract and oil.
  • Fold flour mixture into egg mixture until all flour is absorbed. Fold in nuts, raisins, and chocolate chips.
  • On a lightly floured surface, press dough together. Divide dough in half and roll each half into a log the length of your pan (14 to 18 inches). Place each log on pan and flatten slightly. Bake until well-risen and firm, about 25-30 minutes. Cool the logs on the pans and racks.
  • Reset racks in upper and lower thirds of oven. Using sharp serrated knife, slice baked logs diagonally about every 1/2 inch. Place cinnamon-sugar mixture in a shallow dish and turn the cut cookies in it. Return biscotti to the pans, cut side down, and bake until dry and crisp, up to 20 minutes longer.
  • Store cooled cookies between sheets of parchment or wax paper in tin or plastic container with tight-fitting container.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final product. Use real butter, fresh eggs, and high-quality chocolate.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, which will make the cookies lighter and more tender.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.

Conclusion:

These Mandelbrot recipes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich flavor and satisfying crunch, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
