Lemon Clove Biscotti - butter

Method

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

• Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and clove. Add to the creamed mixture.
• Form into a 1 1/2-inch thick, 3-inch wide flattened log (you may need to do 2 logs depending on the size of your cookie sheet). Place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 35 minutes, or until set in the middle. Cool for 15 minutes. Cut on the bias 1-inch thick. Bake for another 15 minutes.
• You may drizzle or dunk this in white chocolate and sprinkle with sugared lemon rind. You may also want to adjust the lemon and clove amounts depending on your palate.
