Biscotti della nonna

300 g powdered sugar

150 g butter

150 g lard

6 eggs

80 ml milk

1000 g flour

15 g baking powder

1 pinch of salt

grated orange-lemon peel

granulated sugar

Knead all the ingredients in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to form a smooth, homogeneous dough. Place the dough on a floured work surface and knead. Place the dough in a floured bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest in the refrigerator for about 30-40 minutes.

Break the dough into small pieces of 40 g each, roll them into a Bigolus, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the cookies with milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar.

Set the oven temperature to 170°c and bake for about 25 minutes.

Our cookies are now ready to serve.
