Coconut Biscotti

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl cream together sugar and butter.

Add vanilla, eggs and coconut.

Add 1/2 cup flour and baking powder, mix well. Add remaining flour.

Stir in nuts if desired.

On a large sprayed cookie sheet divide dough in half and shape into two logs. (I usually spray my hands with non stick cooking spray for this.).

Bake for 20-25 minutes.

Reduce oven temp to 300.

Cool for 5-10 minutes remove logs from cookie sheets to a cooling rack. Cool for 10-15 minutes.

Cut logs into 3/4 inch slices and place back on cookie sheet, bake for 15-20 minutes or until desired crispness.

Cool completely and either dip or drizzle with melted chocolate.

Store in a air tight can or jar. Do not store in plastic.
