Last weekend, we celebrated my dad's birthday! Everyone deserves to celebrate their birthday with their favorite treats and since I happened to be visiting over my dad's birthday - I actually got to make some celebratory desserts for him this year. S'mores cake and boozy bourbon biscotti were the special birthday treats for my dad this year. Adding biscotti to a party menu means that the celebrations can start first thing in the morning!☀️ Can you think of a better way to kick off a birthday than with a hot cup of coffee and a crispy, crunchy biscotti? Biscotti cookies are baked twice and after the first bake, I always taste test the ends of the biscotti logs that get trimmed in the slicing process. (All in the name of culinary perfection, of course.🤣). After sampling this particular biscotti, I realized infusing bourbon into the batter wasn't quite enough to give this the boozy flavor that I was looking for. I decided to giving brushing more bourbon onto the cut cookies before the second baking, a try. Turns out - that was exactly what these bourbon pecan biscotti needed to give them that delicious, nutty, bourbon flavor. Boozy Bourbon Pecan Biscotti 1/3 cup butter, softened 1 1/4 cups sugar 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 Tablespoons bourbon 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup chopped pecans
Bake 30 minutes at 350. Slice biscotti into 1/2" slices. Lay slices on baking sheet. Brush with 1 T. rum. Bake 10 minutes. Turn biscotti over and bake another 10 minutes. Ciao!
