thanks marketman. i tried your recipe but it lloked dry (eggs were probably too small). so i added a little melted butter. they were still good. will try again without the butter as i want a lighter, guilt-free version.

esquire, yup, no butter, the eggs will bind it. Results in a nice hard biscotti if done right and long enough in the oven…

For all the coffee I consume (5 to 7 cups a day) I’m a bit surprised that I’ve never really taken to biscotti. I think the sheer weight and density of the stuff (and hidden caloric content?) scares me off.

There is an italian liquor called Vin Santo. It’s a dessert liquor which is very good with almond biscottis. They compliment each other very well.

my fave biscotti is chocolate with hazelnuts and chocolate chunks :P

Blue bacon and Green Eggs (cubao) used to make really good biscotti of that flavor…maybe they still do.

I’m not a fan of biscotti only because everytime I bite into one, a brace bracket or two detaches… I like the sound of Cranberry and Almond. I also like Chocolate and almond biscotti, MM!

Sounds delicious and easy! I will have to try that sometime… maybe after I move into the new apartment. Have to overcome this fear of baking sometime, right? Heheheh…

I really like biscotti. My mom likes ’em dipped in chocolate, but I prefer them “undipped”.

By the way, a suggestion: specify that the 325 degrees is Fahrenheit, especially since a lot of your readers are in the Philippines and in Europe. Or maybe you don’t have to… home ovens don’t heat up to 325 Celsius, right? :)
