Steps:
- PREHEAT the oven to 180/350/gas 4. GREASE a 28cm round shallow cake tin with a little butter and line with baking parchment. MELT the butter in a small saucepan over a medium heat, remove from the heat and leave to cool. MIX together in a large bowl the flour, almonds, sugar, salt and baking powder. ADD the eggs, cognac, vanilla extract and orange zest. STIR together until well combined. ADD the cooled butter to the flour mixture and mix until it starts to form a dough - it will be quite crumbly. PRESS the dough into the base of the cake tin with the palms of your hands, squashing it right into the corners. It should cover the whole base, 3cm deep. BAKE in the oven for 25 minutes, until risen slightly and golden brown. If you remove them now they will be chewy. For a harder biscuits leave an extra 10 mins longer. REMOVE from the oven and turn onto a wire rack to cool. Cu CUT into large fingers and sprinkle with icing sugar.

CHOCOLATE CANTUCCI
Cantucci are typical Tuscan cookies, traditionally served with vin santo or red wine. They are also known as Italian biscotti because they are twice (bis) cooked (cotti). This version with dark chocolate is even yummier than the original!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together eggs and granulated sugar until pale and thick, about 5 minutes. Mix in orange zest and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture until combined. Mix in nuts and dried fruit.
- Divide dough evenly between two parchment-lined baking sheets, forming each half into a 9-by-5-inch rectangle. Brush tops with egg white and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon sanding sugar.
- Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until golden all over and tops are firm to the touch, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks and let cool 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.
- Working with one rectangle at a time, transfer dough to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut on a slight diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange, cut-side down, on fresh parchment-lined baking sheets.
- Bake, rotating sheets and flipping cookies halfway through, until lightly golden all over, about 40 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks and let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 weeks.
