Instructions: I recently submitted a recipe for my fathers biscotti. Heres my moms recipe. Obviously, we spend a lot of time in our family baking and eating biscotti! Its been a staple in our family for over 30 years.

Cream butter, shortening, and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift flour with baking powder; add alternately with milk to first mixture. Mix in remaining ingredients. Add more flour if necessary- batter should not be too soft. Spread in a 11"x17"x1/2" cookie sheet. Bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven; cut into 1" wide strips of desired length. Turn on sides and return to oven to toast lightly.

Makes a lot.
