is there something wrong with the amounts in this recipe.....are there too many eggs....when I made it, it never forms a dough you could work with.....I've made biscotti before and was wondering if there were too many eggs....or wet ingredients....help

I agree with you about the eggs, I took it down to three eggs and recipe worked perfectly

As Requested By Viewers,
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a jelly roll pan with nonstick baking spray containing flour and set aside.
Combine cake mix, oil, and eggs in large mixing bowl and stir to blend. Beat two minutes at highest speed of mixer. Add anise seed, extract, and chopped almonds and blend well. Spread batter in prepared pan.
Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown and bars begin to pull away from sides of pan. Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Cut dough into 3 strips lengthwise, then cut each strip across into 12 bars, making 36 bars total.
Place bars, cut side down, on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake bars at 350 degrees F for 8-12 minutes until cut sides begin to brown, turning over once during baking time.
While bars are baking, on shallow plate, combine powdered sugar and ground almonds and mix well. Remove cookies from cookie sheet and immediately drop into powdered sugar mixture; roll to coat. Place on wire rack and cool completely. Store loosely covered at room temperature. 36 biscotti cookies

Please someone, answer the questions. How can a recipe be featured when it isn't complete - no instructions?

This has to be one of the simplest recipes that I have seen for biscotti. I will have to give this a try. It would go great with coffee or tea in the mornings.

Biscotti is one of my all-time favorite fall/winter treats, along with a nice hot cup of coffee! Can't wait to make these. How long do you bake them?

This recipe sounds good. Do you press the mixture into the pan and bake then? how long? Thanks.
