Something went a little wrong when I sent you the file for biscotti.
I am sending you another copy (which includes the eggs!).

Biscotti

Biscotti are a popular Italian treat.  Although 
traditionally anise flavored, they are quite good 
made with other flavorings.  I have found that the 
almond extract and orange zest adds a quite interesting 
taste.  These cookies pack well for traveling and make
a nice lunch box treat.

1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 cups sifted flour
2 tsps. baking powder
2 tsps. (anise) extract (substitute vanilla)

Cream sugar, eggs and oil.  Slowly, add 1/2 of the flour, baking powder and
extract.  Add remaining half of flour, kneading until dough is medium soft.

Roll into 4 small "buns."   Place onto greased cookie sheets (2 buns on
each), and flatten to about 1/2 inch.  Bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees.

Remove and cut 1/2 inch angled slices, while still hot!  Put pieces back on
cookie sheet and "toast" on 1 side at 475 degrees for 3 minutes.
Thanks!
