| 1. Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a baking pan 13-15 inches long with either cooking spray and foil or parchment. | 2. Combine honey and water, stirring to form a solution; stir in almond extract and/or vanilla if desired and set aside. | 3. Combine the dry ingredients (including the ground and the whole almonds) and stir for a minute or so to combine. | 4. Add honey-water and stir until all the ingredients are incorporated into a thick dough. | 5. Divide the dough in half and form or roll into 2 logs about 12 inches long (they'll spread out as they bake so place well apart from each other in the pan)--Tip: Lightly moisten your fingers with water to prevent the dough from sticking to them. It's easier to shape the logs. | 6. Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes; they should be well risen, firm, and a dark golden color. It is important that the logs bake a half hour or very close to it. | 7. After cooling for 5-10 minutes, slice the logs diagonally at 1/2 inch intervals with a sharp knife. | 8. Place the biscotti on their sides and bake about 15 minutes at 300°F until lightly colored and dry. | 9. If they need to bake longer than 15 minutes, turn them over to avoid over-browning the side on bottom. | 10. Allow to cool in the pan and store in a tin or tightly closed container. | 11. (Note: I usually buy raw almonds and roast them myself in a 300°F oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring after the first 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature before using in a recipe). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
