Claire's Mandelbrot

3.3

(12)

Ilene Danuff of New York, New York, writes: "This recipe was created by my mother. I've substituted chocolate chips for the M&M's MINIs that she uses."

Mandelbrot is a traditional Jewish cookie that resembles biscotti but is more tender. Claire Danuff sprinkles her cookies with cinnamon sugar before baking, but we prefer them plain. To try the topping, combine 1/4 cup sugar with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.

Active time: 20 min Start to finish: 2 hr

Cooks' note:

• Cookies keep in an airtight container at room temperature 2 weeks.
