Mandarin Cantuccini

Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan oven 180°C).

Mix 250 g flour, 2 eggs, 125 g sugar, 125 g FunCakes powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla flavor, 1 tablespoon mandarin flavor, and 1½ teaspoons baking powder to obtain a homogeneous dough. Then incorporate 125 g sliced almonds, 75 g hazelnuts, and 50 g pistachios into the dough. Reserve a few sliced almonds for topping.

Divide the dough into four parts and form four dough rolls. Do this on a floured work surface. Place the rolls on the baking paper and brush them with beaten egg. Sprinkle a few sliced almonds on top. Bake the biscuits for about 20 to 25 minutes.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately cut them into diagonal slices. Place them back on the baking tray and return to the oven. Lower the oven to 130°C and continue baking the biscuits for another 10 minutes.
