I made a batch of these yesterday following the recipe exactly,
including the second bake at 200 degrees. I am happy with how they
turned out. Somewhere between short bread and biscotti. If i were
making them over again, i would double the amount of walnuts.

Title: Paximadia: Greek Walnut Cookie Slices
Categories: Cookies, Ethnic, Greek
Yield: 1 Batch

1 c Oil
1 1/2 c Sugar
3 Eggs
4 c Flour
2 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 ts Cinnamon
1/2 ts Allspice
1/2 c Walnuts or almonds; chopped
1 ts Anise (optional)

These are very similar to biscotti but are not necessarily twice
baked. I make this at Christmas time for my Greek friends.

Beat oil and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time.
Combine remaining ingredients and mix into creamed mixture with
wooden spoon. Form dough into 4 oval loaves on baking sheet. Score
into 1/2" slices. Bake 325°F for 25 minutes or done. Slice
completly through while warm and cool completely. These freeze
well. If you want a harder cookie you can return just baked cookie
to oven, reducing heat 200°F and bake 20 minutes longer.
