Spiced Biscotti

Ingredients

2-1⁄4 cups (11-1⁄4 ounces) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
1⁄2 teaspoon ground cloves
1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1⁄4 teaspoon ground ginger
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 cup (7 ounces) sugar
2 large eggs plus 2 large yolks
1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and white pepper together in small bowl.
Whisk sugar, eggs, and egg yolks in large bowl until light lemon color; stir in vanilla. Mix flour mixture into egg mixture until combined and dough forms.
Halve dough and turn each portion onto prepared baking sheet. Using floured hands, quickly stretch each portion of dough into rough 13 by 2-inch loaf, placing them about 3 inches apart. Pat each loaf to smooth it. Bake, until loaves are golden and just beginning to crack on top, about 35 minutes, rotating baking sheet halfway through baking.
Let loaves cool for 10 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Cut each loaf diagonally into 3⁄8-inch slices with serrated knife. Lay slices cut side up about 1⁄2 inch apart on baking sheet and return them to oven. Bake until crisp and golden brown on both sides, about 15 minutes, turning over each cookie halfway through baking. Immediately transfer biscotti from baking sheet to wire rack and let cool completely.
