Ingredients

2 cups flour, all-purpose
1 cup sugar granulated
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons kirsch (cherry brandy)
2 tablespoons liqueur grand marnier or cointreau, orange flavor
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup almonds natural, chopped
1/2 cup glace cherries chopped

Directions

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

Butter and flour a large baking sheet.

Mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, kirsch, Grand Marnier, and almond extract.

Add this mixture to the flour mixture.

Stir in the almonds and cherries.

Spoon the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and form it into a strip about 10 inches long, 5 inches wide, and 1/2 inch thick.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until set and firm to the touch.

The dough shouldn't be hard.

Remove from the oven and slice diagonally with a serrated knife into 1/2-inch slices.

(Discard the thick end pieces.) Arrange the slices on the baking sheet and return to the oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until lightly brown.

Let the biscotti cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.

Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Bombay Chicken and Rice

I made this when it was on the Uncle Ben's box, it went over well, lost the recipe, got it from the Cooking Echo (that's how it got here!), used it for Parish Suppers (lost it a couple more times, found it here each time), and will cook it for 24 people on Friday. It's first-class and easy as well.
