To make this Lime Macadamia Nut Biscotti, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg, lime zest, lime juice, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts.
Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log about 1 inch thick and 2 inches wide. Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between them.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the logs are lightly golden brown and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
Using a sharp knife, slice the logs into 1/2 inch thick slices. Place the slices back on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the biscotti are crisp and golden brown.
The Lime Macadamia Nut Biscotti is a perfect combination of tangy and nutty flavors. The biscotti has a crispy texture and a beautiful golden brown appearance. This dessert is perfect for serving with a cup of coffee or tea.
