Steps:
- Oil an 8-inch-square baking pan, and set aside. Place the sugar, 1 cup water, and lemon juice in a small saucepan, and stir to combine. Place over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. If there are sugar crystals on the side of the pan, brush down with a pastry brush dipped in water. Clip on a candy thermometer, and heat to 240 degrees. Remove sugar syrup from the heat, and set aside.
- Combine 3/4 cup cornstarch, cream of tartar, and 3/4 cup water in a medium saucepan, and whisk until smooth and fully combined. Bring the remaining 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a separate pan; add to cornstarch mixture, whisking constantly. Place over medium heat, and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture becomes quite thick and just comes to a boil.
- Pour the sugar syrup into the cornstarch mixture, whisking constantly, and reduce heat to medium. Gently simmer for 1 hour 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Stir in rose water, food coloring, and almonds, if using. Pour into the prepared pan, and let set overnight. Combine the confectioners' sugar with the remaining 1/4 cup cornstarch. Sprinkle some of the mixture in an even layer over a cutting board, and unmold the Turkish delight onto it. Sprinkle the top of the candy with more of the sugar mixture. Using a sharp knife, cut into 1-inch squares. Let sit uncovered overnight. Just before serving, dust with the remaining sugar mixture. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Oil a shallow square metal or silicone baking tray, about 18 x 18cm. Put the sugar in a pan with the cream of tartar and 500ml water and heat gently at first, stirring so that the sugar melts. Then, turn up the heat and boil for 10-15 mins until the mixture is a little more syrupy. If you have a sugar thermometer, it should reach 115-118C.
- Stir the cornflour into 150ml water, then, whisking all the time, pour it into the sugar syrup. Keep whisking, until everything combines to make a smooth, gloopy mix. Take out the whisk and start to stir with a spatula or spoon over a medium heat. Keep stirring until the mixture is thick enough to see a clear line drawn through it with the spoon and it starts to leave the sides of the pan. It will be very thick and make big bubbles that burst as it cooks, so be careful. This can take up to an hour. Test the mix by dropping a small amount into very cold water; it should form a ball that can be pressed gently when cold and that will feel a little springy.
- Stir in the rosewater or rose syrup and the food colouring, if using, then pour everything into the tray and level the top. Leave to cool and set completely. Sieve some cornflour and icing sugar together over a board and carefully turn out the Turkish delight. Cover it with more icing sugar and cornflour and cut it into cubes with a sharp knife. Dust with yet more of the icing sugar mixture and move the pieces apart so they can dry. Can be stored openly or in small cardboard boxes or bags for up to 1 week.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F Line 3 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small glass bowl, put water & almond paste together & stir until mixed, set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter & sugar until fluffy.
- In the meantime; in a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder & salt.
- Add water/paste mix, vanilla, & 8 eggs into the butter/sugar mixture, mix well.
- Stir flour mixture into the butter mixture; mix well.
- Fold in the unsweetened coconut & nuts.
- Turn out unto a lightly floured surface & divide into 6 equal parts. Place each 1/6 of dough onto cookie sheets and form into logs about 14" long & 1 1/2" wide. (2 pcs per cookie sheet).
- In Small bowl beat last egg & tablespoon water for wash. Brush top & sides of each log & sprinkle 1/3 cup of sweetened coconut on & pat very lightly.
- Bake 25-30 minutes until very lightly browned. Cool COMPLETELY. Cut each log diagonally into 3/4" slices. Arrange on baking sheets (no paper) & continue baking for 11 minutes, flip (very gingerly) & bake for an additional 11 minutes. Remove & cool completely.
- While cooling, line several baking pans with wax paper. Place chocolate & oil in pan over low heat, stirring until melted. Dip bottom sides of biscotti into chocolate and lay on their sides onto wax paper until set. I find putting full baking sheets into freezer for 5 minutes, really makes a nice smooth set.
- Taste Heaven !
