SOFT ITALIAN BISCOTTI RECIPE


Traditional Italian biscotti is a twice baked cookie that is hard and best when dunked into coffee. My grandmother made a different type of Italian biscotti, one that is soft on the inside but dense and delicious when dipped in a glaze, and decorated with non-perils.



We made these for Easter when I was younger but now my husband and I enjoy these for a light breakfast or an afternoon pick-me-up. I use vanilla extract but you can substitute anise extract if you prefer these more traditional.
