These were really yummy and not really hard (except for making them look like pretzels, LOL). I think I need to roll them out into longer ropes so they don't end up looking like piles of you-know-what. Which made them a little doughy. But other than that, they were delicious and I will make them again. Probably tomorrow for a games night...

I've made this twice now, and it is really good. It seems salty at first, but do it up several hours ahead and the salt subsides. Perfect the next day! I mis-remembered the recipe while out shopping for ingredients, so I used lemon instead of lime. It works, too.

These biscotti are delicious! I have made the mocha recipe from here a couple of times, and they are good, but these are classic. I did use almond extract instead of the anise since they are at least in part for gifts and I didn't know if the recipients like the taste of licorice. Next time I will add some sliced or chopped almonds for texture. My only complaint is that the dough is extrememly sticky. It stuck to the bowl, my beaters, wooden spoon, everything. Including the wax paper I used as recommended to keep it from sticking to my hands. A little water on my hands did help some, however I might have had a few more cookies if it didn't stick so much. I highly recommend these for taste, though!
