1 cup sugar
1/4 cup light molasses
1 egg
3/4 cup oil
2 cup flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup coarsely chopped hazelnuts

Steps:

Combine 1 cup sugar, mmolasses, beaten egg and safflower oil. Combine the flour, soda, cloves, ginger, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl and then stir together. Fold in the nuts and raisins. Divide dough in half and roll into logs 2"x12". Sprinkle extra sugar on work surface and roll the logs till well coated. (I just sprinkled sugar on the top of biscotti) Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes. Logs will have formed a crust and spread out. Let cool slightly and cut each log into 24 1 1/2 diagonal pieces. Be prepared for the oohs and ahhs for they will surely come.
