Italian Wine Biscuits Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by MJH

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup good dry red wine
1 cup quality olive oil
1 cup sugar
4 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon fennel seed
1 egg lightly beaten, for egg wash

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, stir wine and olive oil. In a large bowl, stir sugar, flour, baking powder, and fennel seed. Stir in liquids. Stir until well blended and a dough begins to forms. Lightly work the dough with your hands until the texture is oily, smooth, and springy. If the dough is too sticky, then mix in 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour at a time, until smooth. Using your hands, pinch off a 2-tablespoon size piece of dough. Roll the dough between lightly floured hands. Roll into a thin cigar shape that is approximately 8 inches long. Form a U shape, then criss-cross the pieces until a braid forms. Place 15 biscuits per baking sheet. Brush tops of biscuits with egg wash. Bake for 40 minutes, rotating pans mid-way through. Biscuits should have a golden color and be crisp on the bottom. Remove from oven and place on a cookie rack to cool completely. Biscuits should be stored in an air-tight tin container (preferably tin to maintain their crispness) and kept in a cool area, such as a cupboard. Properly stored, they should last up to one month.

I found that the cookies were a bit dry. I think I would add an extra egg yolk to the dough next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I used a white wine instead of a red wine and the cookies turned out great. I think you could use any type of wine you like.

I'm not a big fan of anise, so I omitted it from the recipe. The cookies were still delicious.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover wine. I always have a bottle or two open in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

These cookies are the perfect combination of crispy and chewy. They're also not too sweet, which I appreciate.
