Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325° and butter 2 baking sheets. Beat sugar and butter until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each. Beat in orange peel and vanilla. Stir flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt into medium bowl. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture; mixing just until incorporated. Divide dough in half. With lightly floured hands, form each half into 3-inch wide by 3/4 inch high log. Bake until dough logs are firm to touch, about 35 minutes. Remove dough logs from oven and cool 10 minutes. Transfer logs to work surface. Using serrated knife, cut diagonal into 1/2- inch thick slices. Arrange cut side down on baking sheets. Bake until bottoms are golden, about 12 minutes. Turn biscotti over, bake until bottoms are golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer to racks and cool.
Tips:
- Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use 1 cup of orange juice concentrate.
- Be sure to use unsalted butter. If you use salted butter, omit the added salt in the recipe.
- If you don't have cinnamon chips, you can use 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- If you want a crispier biscotti, bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Store the biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
