Biscotti

This is a great recipe.  Although I got it from my sister, I'm not sure where she got it so I'm afraid I can't give credit where it's due.

1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 cup slivered almonds
1 Tablespoon anise seed
Mix oil, sugar, eggs, soda, salt, vanilla, almond extract and anise seeds.  Add flour and almonds.  Mold into two logs about 3x8".  Place on cookie sheet covered with foil. (I use a silpat). Dough will be kind of sticky.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Cut into strips.  Place cut side down on cookie sheet.  Broil 15-30 seconds on each side.  Drizzle with chocolate.
