HALLOWEEN BOO-SCOTTI



Halloween Boo-Scotti image

These are biscotti decorated like ghosts and perfect for kids to dunk in milk or other beverages at a Halloween party or to send wrapped to the school Halloween party. I like the use of almonds in two ways, ground to give a little moisture instead of flour and whole for crunchy texture and good looks! For your Halloween party, rest a pot of hot cider inside a big jack-o'-lantern. Pour it into mugs with red-hot candies, cinnamon sticks or cinnamon schnapps.

Time 1h35m

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 1/2 cups whole blanched almonds, toasted
2 eggs
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier or thawed orange juice concentrate
2 teaspoons freshly grated orange zest
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
12 ounces white chocolate, melted
Candy corn, licorice buttons, chocolate chips, raisins, colored sugar, etc. for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a large sheet pan.
  • Into a large bowl, sift together the sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt. Transfer 1/2 cup of the mixture to a food processor. Add 1/3 cup of the toasted almonds to the food processor and pulse until fine and powdery, about 45 seconds. Return this mixture to the dry ingredients, stir in the whole almonds, and mix.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, Grand Marnier, zest, vanilla, and almond extract. Stir into the dry ingredients. The dough may seem dry, but it will moisten as you mix. Mix until smooth. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it a few times just to bring the dough together. Divide into 2 equal pieces. Wet your hands and use them to shape each piece of dough into a flattened log about 8 inches long by 3 inches wide and 1 inch high.
  • Transfer the logs to the prepared pan, leaving at least 3 inches between the logs (they will spread during baking). Bake until light golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating the pan after 15 minutes to ensure even baking.
  • Let cool 15 minutes on the pan. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F. Carefully transfer the logs to a cutting board. Wipe off the pan and butter it again.
  • Using a serrated knife, cut the logs into 1/2-inch-thick slices, discarding or snacking on the ends. Arrange the slices on the sheet pan cut-side up. Bake until toasted, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven off, prop the oven door open, and let cool completely in the oven.
  • Meanwhile, in the top of a double boiler (or in a bowl) set over hot (not boiling or simmering) water; slowly melt the white chocolate, stirring often.
  • Line a sheet pan with waxed or parchment paper and transfer the melted white chocolate to a small bowl. Dip 2 inches of the end of each cookie into the white chocolate and turn chocolate-side-up so that the chocolate drips unevenly down the cookie. The chocolate-covered end of the biscotti is its head; the uneven edge is the bottom edge of the ghost's "sheet." Lay them on the waxed paper as they are dipped.
  • While the chocolate is still warm, decorate the chocolate covered ends with little ghost faces, using small candies, licorice, candy corn, chocolate chips, raisins, or sprinkles. If necessary, snip the candies to make them smaller. Sprinkle orange, yellow, or black sugar on the top edges of the biscotti for hair or all over the ghost's face. Let cool on wire racks until set. Store in an airtight container.

BOO SCOTTI RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Boo Scotti Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-9642

Number Of Ingredients 14

BISCOTTI:
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
3 Land O Lakes® All-Natural Eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup salted peanuts, finely chopped
COATING:
1 (16 ounce) package vanilla candy coating (almond bark)
DECORATIONS:
Candy eyes, mini chocolate chips, decorator sugar, nonpareils etc.

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Combine sugar and butter in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low; add flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Beat, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Stir in peanuts. Divide dough in half; shape each half into 13-inch log. Place 4 inches apart onto greased cookie sheet. Flatten each log to 2-inch width. Bake for 24 to 27 minutes or until lightly browned and set. Cool on cookie sheet 1 hour. Heat oven to 325°F. Carefully place logs onto cutting surface. With serrated knife, cut logs diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. Arrange slices, cut-side down, onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, turning once, or until crisp. Remove to wire rack; cool completely. Tips: If candy coating gets too thick, reheat over low heat just until coating comes to desired dipping consistency, adding 1 to 2 teaspoons shortening, if necessary. Do not add water or any liquid to candy coating or mixture may harden. Vanilla candy coating can be found in the baking aisle of the supermarket. It is usually shaped in cubes or blocks. Candy coating chips or discs can be purchased from candy or cake decorating stores. Cute candy eyes are available at cake decorating stores. They are inexpensive, easy to use and add the perfect touch to these cookies.
