   • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, place the cold butter, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt.
   • Mix for about 2 minutes, or until the butter and sugar are well combined and slightly creamy.
   • Add the whole egg and egg yolk to the mixture. Continue mixing for an additional 2 minutes using the whisk attachment, until the mixture is smooth.

2. Add the Dry Ingredients:

   • Gradually add the rice flour and gluten-free baking powder. Mix until everything is fully incorporated, and you have a homogeneous dough.

3. Chill the Dough:

   • Transfer the dough to a flat surface and shape it into a log or a round block. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up the dough.

4. Form the Biscuits:

   • Once the dough has chilled, take it out of the fridge. Break off pieces of dough weighing approximately 30g each. Roll them into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
   • Gently flatten each dough ball with your fingers to form a round biscuit shape.

5. Bake the Biscotti:

   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) in static mode.
   • Bake the biscotti for 15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden around the edges.

6. Cooling:

   • Once baked, remove the biscotti from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

• Variations: You can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a handful of chopped nuts to the dough for extra flavor.
• Storage: Store these biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
