I did not actually eat this biscotti, so I can only rate on the actual making of the recipe, which went very well. Everything turned out just as biscotti should, and the dipping in the chocolate was easy and pretty.

WONDERFULL biscotti. the texture was just right and had a light delicate flavor. the only thing i would say would be that dipping one whole side in chocolate overpowers the flavor. drizziling the chocolate complemented the flavor better and also looks better.... 5 stars wonderfull recipe...

Perfect Biscotti! Just the right amount of sweet. I baked them for less time, did not add more flour even though the dough was moist and used the rind of 2 oranges. They paired perfectly with Ginger Peach tea.

Ok, I added 1/2 cup of flour, just because it was SO SO wet and impossible to handle, and a little more orange zest, and it was amazing!!! My mom had it with her coffee this morning, and though she usually hates eating anything in the morning, she was crazy over this! She said it was seriously the best biscotti she ever tasted!

Disappointed to say the least. I made this to the "T" and it was burnt tasting. I even shortend the 2nd baking time. The only thing that made it passable was that I had to dunk it in my coffee, I know its a coffee cookie, but I like "to go" breakfast cookies, and this I will most def pass on--sorry!

Strangely I had the opposite problem of most of the reviewers .... not enough liquid! I added about a tablespoon of butter, and that seemed to help smooth it out some. Overall, I thought the recipe was fine. A little salty, but otherwise no major complaints. Just sort of a standard recipe.

The dough was not at all doughy, more sticky and pasty, very difficult to work with! Trying to roll it out was a losing proposition! I ended up just blobbing it on the cookie sheet and using a rubber spatula sprayed with Pam to put it into some kind of loaf-like shape. That having been said, it made some super-tasty biscotti! Worth making if you can handle the ooey gooey mess!

I made one batch using a mixer and it required about 1/2 cup more flour. Then I mixed one by hand, and 1 cup of flour was enough. I think that might explain why some people think the recipe is perfect and others have problems. One batch with cranberries and white chocolate, one batch as written: the perfect gift for my mother-in-law. Thanks!

As I put this together, I could see there was definitly something wrong with the quantity of flour. There is no way this will produce a smooth ball of dough as written. More flour is definitly needed.
