The dough will be soft and shaggy.
Turn our the dough on to a floured cutting board and divide into two.
Form into two logs 9 x 1 1/2 inches. Place the logs on a parchment lined baking sheet. Don't place them too closely together because they will spread.
Make an egg wash with the second egg and brush over the biscotti logs.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until the logs are golden and firm to the touch.
Cool for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix 3 TBS sugar and 1 TBS cinnamon to make cinnamon sugar.
Put each log on a cutting board and cut into 1/2 inch slices on a slight diagonal. Use a serrated knife. Place the slices on their sides on a parchment lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for 15- 20 minutes until the biscotti is toasted.
