Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Butterscotch Bourbon Biscotti Treats.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for some delicious baking.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and three eggs until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, almost like a cloud.
Step 3
Next, add in the softened butter, a splash of bourbon, and a dash of vanilla extract, mixing until everything is beautifully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder, creating a light and airy blend.
Step 5
Gradually incorporate this dry mixture into your egg mixture, stirring gently until a smooth dough forms.
Step 6
Now comes the fun part—fold in the butterscotch chips and chopped pecans, adding a delightful crunch and sweetness to your dough.
Step 7
Lightly flour your work surface and turn the dough out onto it.
Step 8
Divide the dough into four equal pieces, and roll each piece into a log that’s about 2 inches wide and 9 inches long.
Step 9
Place these logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, giving them a little space to breathe.
Step 10
To add a lovely golden sheen, brush the tops of the logs with a beaten egg.
Step 11
Bake the logs in your preheated oven for around 25 minutes, or until they turn a pale golden color, filling your kitchen with a warm, inviting aroma.
Step 12
Once they’re done, let them cool on the baking sheet for about 15 minutes until they’re firm enough to handle.
Step 13
After cooling, transfer the logs to a cutting board and slice them diagonally into 1-inch thick pieces.
Step 14
Place the slices cut-side down back on the baking sheet.
Step 15
Pop the baking sheet back into the oven and bake the slices for about 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden and inviting.
Step 16
Flip the slices over and give them another 10 minutes in the oven, allowing the other side to achieve that perfect golden hue.
Step 17
Enjoy the delightful transformation of your dough into scrumptious treats that are sure to impress!.
