Beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, then fold in enough flour to make a soft paste that will just hold its shape. Gently fold in the remaining ingredients. Spoon the mixture onto a greased baking sheet in 3 long sausage shapes measuring about 5 x 25cm (2 x 10 inches) not too close together. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes or until risen and golden. 4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and cut each biscuit roll diagonally into thin slices about 1cm (1/2 inch) thick. Spread them out on the baking sheet and return them to the oven for a further 8-10 minutes or until hard. 5. Leave the biscuits to cool, then store in an airtight container. NOTES : Originating in Prato, a city near Florence famous for its early baking and trading establishments, these hard, crunchy biscuits are usually eaten after dinner dipped into small glasses of Vin Santo, a strong honey-coloured wine a little like sherry, but made from dried rather than fresh grapes.
