VERY good! A must have every morning in my house! Instead of anise I used vanilla extract and lemon juice and added a little cinnamon. Also sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar before toasting. Yum!

This is now a staple in my cookbook! I substitute almond extract for the anise and I add chopped roasted almonds. I also dip the bottom of the cookie (that way you get chocolate all the way thru ) and then chopped almonds. This recipe also works well when doubled...heck I am even gonna triple it with the holidays coming up.

I LOVE this biscotti recipe!!! It has the perfect amount of crispness and the variation possibilities are endless! People rave about this when I make it. I make it exactly as the recipe states except I use vanilla extract instead of the anise. One reviewer suggested wetting your fingers to avoid the stickiness while forming the loaves and I've found that that works great. I have two favorite variatations: slivered almonds (chocolate dipped or not, either way is great), and candied cherry and walnut. I package these and give them as gifts during the holidays. Thank you for this wonderful recipe!

There was nothing special about this biscotti at all. I found these bland- I used almond & vanilla extract. Butter adds flavor and crisp that oil just can replace. NO PROBS with the dough though. I fold in my flour & I actually ended up with too much flour. These also broke when I cut them- too cakey. I made these for my 1 yr old, so they will do. But for myself I would not make these.

Used 1 1/2 tsp of pure almond extract instead of anise. It is a great and easy recipe. Thanks for sharing.

This was my first attempt at biscotti, and it was so easy! I used vanilla extract in place of the anise, and it was simple, sweet, and perfect with coffee!

The biscotti recipe wasnt that bad. The dough was kind of crumbly, and so was the cookie. I think it needs some salt as well, maybe about 1tsp of salt should do.

eh, I wasn't overly impressed. The dough was difficult to smooth evenly into logs, they fell apart as I cut them, but the taste was OK. Not sure what went wrong.

Mmm, delicious (and first time!) biscotti. I added almonds and a bit of vanilla and cut the recipe in half, using 2 eggs and 2 cups of flour. It cracked quite a lot in the oven and I don't know if that's natural, but it turned out with a splendid taste nonetheless. I piped some chocolate on one side just for a finishing touch- I'll definitely be making this again.

I really liked this basic recipe. I opted for 1 TBSP of vanilla instead of anise, and I threw in some semi-sweet chocolate chips, too (about 1/2 c). With 1 T of your choice extract and 1/2 c of your choice of any mix-in, this recipe could offer endless possibilities!

This is the best recipe, my search for the "perfect biscotti recipe" is over. This works great with any glaze, extract, syrup, or flavoring you can find.

This recipe is great. The only thing I changed was (like many)the anise extract. I used one tsp. of vanilla extract and one tsp. of almond instead. When I first made the dough it was so sticky and I took the dough out of the mixing bowl and placed it on a pieces of foil. It wouldn't come off the foil so I put it in the fridge for a few mins. and it peeled right off. I greased my hands and the foil then it work marvelously . The biscotti was amazing :) I drizzled it with chocolate.

Very easy to do recipe! Thanks - I changed though flavouring with 1 tsp almond and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and added 1/2 cup slivered almonds for texture and a bit of crunchiness. I also made a batch with butter instead of vegetable oil which makes the biscotti taste more creamier...
