Instructions: I will admit that I thought this sounded like the strangest recipe when I first read it, but after I made them I found out just how GREAT they were!!

Ive made them for work and got so many compliments and requests for the recipe that I thought I would pass them along. I made just a couple Choice Cookbook. But full credit goes to the "Agate Cove Inn" in Mendocino, California, it is their Specialty Recipe served at their Bed & Breakfast.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients (first 7 ingreds) and blend well.

In a small bowl, whisk together all liquids, add to dry ingredients with mixer. You may want to add a few drops of coffee to get mixture gooey.

Add chocolate chips, walnuts and Craisins. Turn dough out onto a well-floured board and form into 1/2" thick by 3-1/2"wide, flat logs-

cook on greased & floured cookie sheet at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Cook until cake-like. Cool.
**see NOTE #1**

Cut logs into 1/2" pieces, lay (cut-side down) flat on cookie sheet and bake another 6-8 minutes at 300 degrees one side only. Then flip over and bake on other side 6-8 minutes. Cool and serve.
**see NOTE #2**

**NOTE #1** I first covered sheet with foil, then greased / floured that.

It was much easier to remove the logs since they tend to stick because of very low fat content.

**NOTE #2**after I cut into slices, I place them upright on a cooling rack placed ON the cookie sheet and I bake them ONLY 1 more time...as this bakes BOTH sides at once.

Makes approx. 32 Biscotti...recipe can be doubled easily
