This recipe tasted great, and was a major hit. However, the texture was off each time I made it. The first time was slightly underbaked, causing the cookies to hold together better without being as crisp. The second time, when they were fully cooked, they were fairly crumbly, but still good for dipping. Definitely a recipe that I'll try again, though!

These were the perfect treat to have with coffee on a cold winter day. It was a surprisingly easy recipe. I did end up using 1/3 c. more flour to make the dough easier to handle and I used white, not whole wheat flour because that's all I had on-hand. I dipped one side in white chocolate, which makes for a prettier presentation. I received many compliments on these and plan to make them again.

I liked this recipe overall. However, next time I will eliminate the whole wheat flour and use all white flour. While I love to use whole wheat flour most of the time, I thought it competed with the gingerbread flavor. This was also commented on by my friends. The cookies were still very good and the cook times were dead on for me. Thanks for the recipe.

I'm not confident in my cooking abilities, but these turned out so wonderfully that I ended up three batches for different Christmas parties. I didn't toast them as much, and every one appreciated biscotti that wasn't dry and crunchy.

I made a double batch of these biscotti as Christmas gifts for the office, and they were an absolute hit. As suggested in other reviews, I drizzled the biscotti with melted white chocolate after the second baking, though they're quite good plain as well. They could have been a bit more gingerbready, though, so I'll probably add a bit of vanilla extract, ground allspice and finely chopped candied ginger next time around.

This turned out great for me. It's a bit softer than most biscotti because of the molasses, but we really liked it. Others who tasted it are asking me for the recipe. I added some dried cranberries to the mix before baking these, and it was a nice addition.

YUMMY! I made this recipe for gifts. I dipped half of them in dark chocolate and half in white chocolate then added Christmas sprinkles. I may add more ginger next time but then that is a personal preference.

Everything they say is true! These are the best. I made around 200 last week for various cookie trays and plates (and personal edification). I did put the white chocolate on one side, and on some, I put the melted chocolate in a piping bag and wrote "HO HO HO" on the sides, very cute! Just delicious, making more tonight for Santa!

Smelled good but it was doughy in the center. I baked it twice which helped. This was a very stick dough. If you make it I would suggest making it in a low profile like one inch or less then it might cook through better. I sprinkled it with 10x sugar.

We loved this recipe, great with coffee! It does help to dampen your hands with water when handling the dough.

These were easy, delicious, and they made a ton. What more could you ask for? I made three kinds of biscotti for Christmas gifts at work this year, and this was by far the favorite. As with others, I found the cooking time just slightly high, causing dark bottoms and ends. Dipping them in the white chocolate made me forget all about the dark ends though and added quite a bit of appeal. I found that adding a tablespoon of shortening to the chips helped make the consistency easier for smooth dipping.

This is a five plus! I made several batches of these to give to my neighbors and they were very well received. Perfect biscotti. The only changes I made were to brush the loaves with an egg wash before baking and sprinkle on some red and green sugar. I also did the second bake with the cookies standing up rather than flipping them.

Delicious and easy! Fills the house with the smells of Christmas! I dipped them in white chocolate melts, and hubby loved them! I did reduce the baking time, as they were burning a bit on the bottom.

Delicious! I baked these for Christmas gifts and they were hard to give away. The texture helped them travel perfectly. I found the cooking times to be accurate for a crisp, traditional biscotti.

this may be the best biscotti I have ever had! I followed the recipe exactly (even the cooking time) and they came out perfectly. I don't know why some others had so much trouble. The dough wasn't sticky at all. Even my 6 year old had one with milk tonight and loved it! This is a keeper. Thanks so much Christina!

The taste is very good and easy to make. Make sure you flatten the dough to 1/2 inch thickness as directed, mine was a little thicker and ended up very doughy in the middle when I cut them, they did cook through when I baked them the second time. I did dip one side in vanilla almond bark. My husband said they were very good dipped in coffee.

I thought that the dough was hard to work with. Definitely grease the cookie sheets and your hands for shaping the dough. It was very sticky! However, the end product was quite tasty. I also took previous reviewer's suggestion and coated one side with melted white chocolate chips.
