This is an excellent recipe! Very easy. I added a little cayenne pepper to the flour mixture. To make it easier to work with the sticky dough, I formed the logs in a sheet of wax paper.

This is a seriously good recipe. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it is seriously crumbly when cutting into it. I used 1 3/4 c oat flour and 1/4 c cocoa powder to make them chocolate-based. the oat flour gives it an old fashioned/homemade taste. My mix-ins were sliced almonds and dark chocolate chips.

These are excellent if you like your biscotti on the softer side. I know purists disagree, but I enjoy softer biscotti. Toasted the hazelnuts, removed skins and coarsely chopped. 1st batch I added toffee bits and 2nd batch subbed in tart dried cherries. Great recipe, easy to change up. Thank you for a keeper!!

This recipe has become an annual tradition at Christmastime. I bake several batches and package them nicely to give as gifts for teachers, friends, neighbors, family. Everyone LOVES them. When I misplaced the recipe (and forgot where I got it in the first place) this past Christmas, I used another recipe and it was not nearly as good as this one!!

Wonderful, beautiful and easy! One batch wihout silvered almonds and in its place added extra 1/8 cup chopped dark orange flavored chocolate. The other batch was per recipe...dipped and drizzled both with chocolate. Will make again and again! Thank you for such as a delicious recipe. Definite winner!

These biscotti's turned out absolutely perfect! I used bittersweet choc chips and chopped hazelnuts. I also dipped one end and also the bottom in chocolate. The only thing I did extra was baked it on either side for 10 min after slicing it - not just the once like the recipe says. I will definitely make these again

My first attempt at making Biscotti's. Plan to make them alot more now. Yummy...serving tonight to dinner guest. I used chocolate chip and did toast my almonds before adding them. Then drizzled with melted chocolate. Thanks Sue

Excellent recipe! The most important thing I did differently was after slicing, baking on each side 10 mins instead of just the one side. I laid the slices down on one cut side for 10 mins, then flipped to the other cut side another 10 mins. Perfect! I used bittersweet chocolate chips and pecans instead of the white chocolate and hazelnuts. It came out great!
