Nothing is more iconic with a cup of coffee than a great piece of biscotti. Sadly, a lot of coffee shop varieties are too dry and have no flavor. Now you can make your own at home! It’s easy, fresh, and utterly delicious. You never need to buy a piece of biscotti again!
Once cooled, the biscotti will be dry and perfect for dunking into a hot cup of coffee. This recipe can be adapted with different fruits, nuts, and flavorings. Simple, rustic, and delicious.
