About Recipe

One more cookie recipe for you and these are fantastic!!! I absolutely love sitting down with a hot cup of coffee and a good biscotti. I makes me think of two things… being in Italy and spending time with my Grandma. These are a little different then a typical biscotti, these are my Pecan Cornmeal Biscotti! I really love using cornmeal, it adds to the texture and gives you a slightly nutty flavor. Pecans, they are one of my favorite nuts to use in baking. They add great crunch here. What makes a biscotti different then a typical cookie? Biscotti are baked twice. First the dough is baked in a log, cooled, sliced and baked again. They are drier and crisp and stand up perfectly to dunking in a cup of coffee. I LOVE biscotti!!! You can really make these in so many different varieties. Another favorite is biscotti with dried cranberries and pistachio. You can drizzle of dunk one end of the biscotti in melted chocolate and allow it to harden to add another layer of flavor. Chocolate chip biscotti, also fabulous! Any nut and dried fruit combination in a biscotti is a winner in my book.
