I made these Triple Peanut Butter Cookie Bars. They were delicious! I subbed some of the mix-ins and used PB Chips, white choco Chips and Reese's Pieces. If you're a big peanut butter fan, as I am, I highly recommend these!

Anyone have a good recipe for basic biscotti (like a master recipe!?) that you can than add things into (nuts, chocolate chips, cranberries etc) I had one when I worked at a coffee shop but I lost it
Here you go...tried and true. My favourite combo is diced dried pears, whole hazelnuts and LorAnn Oils hazelnut baking emulsion.
Biscotti di Prato (Prato Style Biscotti)
This recipe is from "Biscotti and Other Low-Fat Cookies," by Maria Robbins.
Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
¾ cup whole, unblanched almonds, lightly toasted
1 large egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon water
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line baking sheet with baking parchment.
2. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the eggs and vanilla and almond extracts.
4. Stir in the almonds.
5. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces and shape each piece into a log about 18 inches long.
6. Arrange logs on prepared baking sheet. Flatten the logs slightly with the palm of your hand and brush with the egg wash.
7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until tops are firm to the touch and golden brown.
8. Remove baking sheets to a wire rack and let cool for about 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle.
9. Reduce oven temperature to 325° F.
10. Using a long serrated knife, cut each log diagonally into ½ ” slices.
11. Arrange the biscotti, cut sides down, on the baking sheet.
12. Bake the biscotti for 7 to 8 minutes on each side.
13. Transfer the biscotti to wire racks and let cool completely. Store at room temperature in airtight container. They will keep for about 1 month. Yields about 60 biscotti.
We are still introducing the twins to different foods. Their most recent food was black beans. I turned the rest of the can into black bean brownies, which I have never made before. I thought they were ok. Our 3.5yr old son really liked them and my neighbour thought they were awesome. I pulled a banana bread out of the freezer because I am currently pretty sick and not up for much at the moment.
I am looking for a oatmeal (raisin) cookie that spreads into a thin chewy cookie. If anyone is baking them, can you report what recipe you are using and what fat? I am aiming for something like the big round flat ones at the grocery bakery.
Our 3yr old son and I baked 3 dozen molasses oatmeal chocolate chip cookies this morning.
I've been baking tons of bread lately. Lots of basic white loaves and made cinnamon raisin for my mom for mother's day. Making pizza dough now for cheesy breadsticks tonight.

This is the one I use. I omit the Brandy and add more vanilla and less almond extract because I don't love the smell of almond extract. DELICIOUS dipped in white chocolate.
Just swap the almonds for whatever.
