almond biscotti
Crunchy nut cookies
Almond biscotti are Italian cookies baked twice—first as a log, then sliced and baked again until dry and crunchy.
The double baking makes them ideal for dipping in coffee or dessert wine.
Biscotti can contain various nuts or flavorings, but almond is the classic variety: She dunked her almond biscotti in espresso.
