Chocolate and Almond Biscotti
Loved these! This was my first time making biscotti...everyone loved this and I was quite impressed. I substituted a tsp almond extract for the whisky. The dough may seem to dry at first...just make sure your hands are wet and really just mold and form the dough into a log. It may take time..almost like you are sculpting the form. It will quickly become moist. Also, I used a very sharp knife for cutting. Sawing didn't work for me...it was breaking the cookies and making a mess. Just a quick cut straigt down w/ a sharp knife worked great.

Busia's Cutout Cookies
Great cutout recipe. One of the best I've used. We frost the cookies w/ a powdered sugar frosting. I followed reviewers' advice to add lemon zest, almond extract and roll it out in a bit of powdered sugar. They were great w/ the frosting and very easy to work with.
