| 1 | cup | sugar | |
| 1/2 | cup | butter | melted |
| 2 | tablespoons | pernod | |
| 1 1/2 | tablespoons | bourbon | |
| 2 | tablespoons | star anise | |
| 3 | large | egg | |
| 1 | cup | almonds | chopped |
| 2 1/4 | cups | flour, all-purpose | |
| 1 1/2 | teaspoons | baking powder | |
| 12 | ounces | chocolate chips | |
| 2 | tablespoons | vegetable shortening |
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sugar and melted butter.
Add the Pernod, bourbon and anise seed.
Beat in the eggs, then stir in the nuts.
Sift the dry ingredients together. Gently stir in the dry ingredients until well incorporated.
Cover with plastic wrap and chill for about three hours.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Butter two cookie sheets. Shape the dough on cookie sheets into three loaves, well spaced.
Each loaf should be about two inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
Bake for about 20 minutes, until the loaves puff up and brown.
When the loaves are cool enough to touch, cut each loaf into diagonal slices about 1/2 inch thick.
Lay the slices on their cut sides and toast them at 375 degrees F. for an additional 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
Cool.
Dip biscotti in chocolate the day they are to be served.
In the top of a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips with the shortening, stirring frequently.

Around the holiday seasons, you always see commercials that revolve around family dinners....
I have made this but substitute carnation evaporated Milk for the cream and it is wonderful, adjust cooking time until top becomes lightly golden then chill and serve, also I substitute Florida Key Lime Juice for the fresh squeezed lime much cheeper.
