How to Make Passover Biscotti Aka Mock Mandel Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups cake meal (or matzo meal, or a combination of both), and ½ cup potato starch.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped nuts (your choice!) and ½ cup chocolate chips.
- Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a loaf (approximately 12x4 inches) on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the loaves.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
- Using a serrated knife, carefully slice each loaf horizontally into ½-inch thick slices, cutting about ¾ of the way through.
- Place the sliced biscotti back on the baking sheet and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
