Step 2
Combine flour, sugar, anise seeds, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together eggs, egg whites, lemon zest and lemon juice in a small bowl and add to the dry ingredients; mix well.
Step 3
Shape the dough into two 14-by-1 1/2-inch logs on a floured surface. Set the logs on the prepared baking sheet and bake until firm to the touch, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the logs to a rack to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
Step 4
Cut the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Stand the slices upright on the baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Let cool before storing.

Terrible! There must be something wrong with the recipe. I followed it perfectly, I ended up with a watery dough that was impissible to keep in place, let alone shape into a log, I even added more flour and nothing. I ended up putting it in the oven as it was and ended up with 2 anise flavored flat cookies. Threw the whole thing away half through baking and went to Food Network to find another recipe Cons: Everything!

Aromatic, Satisfying and Delicious. I was nervous when the dough was so wet and spreading. I thought I left out an ingredient. Once baked, the biscotti was perfect. Pros: Fairly easy to make. Cons: Dough was very wet.
