This was my very first time making biscotti and it turned out beautifully! I followed the recipe exactly and they were a hit at Christmas.

I gave this as a gift with white chocolate and dark chocolate drizzled all over. Both recipients were amazed and very pleased by the flavor and appearance of this wonderful treat.

I loved this biscotti recipe. The texture was just like I want...not hard as a brick, and doesn't fall apart in my coffee. The cherry/chocolate combination is always delicious, but I'm sure I'll make it again with other ingredients for a change. I gave some away as gifts and kept the rest for myself. Yum!

These were easy and turned out well. I didn't have almond extract so I substituted vanilla extract and used Craisins instead of cherries and they are very good. I left out the white chocolate drizzle as I thought they were nice as they were. Will use this recipe again.

I made these twice following the recipe exactly and both times they came out perfectly, down to every last piece. Easy to cut, no crumbling, and tastes delicious! I didnt, however, get as many pieces as it says, only about 24, but maybe I cut them a little too fat. The last batch found me short 1tsp of extract so I left the one out, and it still was tasty-- Thanks!

These are wonderful cookies. I reduced the sugar to 1/2 C...perfect, used dried cherries, and added coursely chopped toasted almonds. Take note: These are not like traditional biscotti. They are not hard, as you might want a good dipping cookie to be. Instead, they are more soft- like a cookie. You will love the flavor! Ciao.

I'm making my second batch today as I type this... yum! I made them exactly as the recipe called for and didn't have any problems with stickiness of the dough. I did make sure to weigh each half to ensure that I had similar sized logs. I dipped the bottoms in melted semi-sweet chocolate and then drizzled melted white baking chocolate on the tops. I baked them exactly as the recipe called for, including flipping them over. Perfect! I can see that if you increased the chips or the cherries that the dough might not be stable enough to hold together well, so stick to about 1/2 cup of each. There is plenty to make it look pretty AND taste good!
