• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup oil

4. Using a teaspoon, scoop walnut-sized balls of batter onto the powdered sugar, and roll each into an oval.
5. Transfer cookies to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover with a single layer of parchment.
6. Place pans into an oven preheated to 200°C (392°F).
7. Bake for 5–15 minutes, until biscotti begin to turn golden.
8. Cool completely.
