Cantuccini

"An Italian biscuit, hard and crunchy. Serve with Vin Santo or coffee."

Ingredients :

9 ounces all-purpose flour
9 ounces superfine sugar
2 medium eggs
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ounces roughly chopped hazelnuts
1 1/2 ounces roughly chopped almonds
1 teaspoon whole anise seeds
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water

Instructions :

Prep : 30M	Cook : 24M	Ready in : 1H30M

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine flour, sugar, eggs, egg yolk, baking powder, and vanilla extract in a food processor. Blend until the mixture forms a ball, scraping the sides of the bowl once or twice. Turn mixture onto a lightly floured surface and knead in hazelnuts, almonds, and anise seeds.
Beat egg yolk and water together in a bowl.
Divide dough into 3 pieces and roll into logs about 1 1/2 inches wide. Place onto the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Brush with egg yolk-water mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Cut logs diagonally into 1-inch slices and lay cut-sides down on the baking sheet. Return cantuccini to the oven until dry and firm, 30 to 40 minutes more.
Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.
