Directions
Orange Biscotti, These crisp, crunchy cookies are based on the classic Italian version These contain no nuts and are a slightly softer than the original version, which makes them more child friendly (mine adore them!) Try them with your mid morning cup of coffee , I don’t know why I’ve always been intimidated by biscotti recipes But this, my first attempt, was really good! The orange flavor is wonderful and the texture is absolutely perfect – I think it must be the cornmeal (had no polenta on hand, but no matter as the cornmeal was just great) Unfortunately, ovens are dreadful in this country, so the bottoms burned on the first bake But we managed to save the day by cutting off the burnt bottoms and then returning to the oven for the second bake That’s why the finished product looks a bit short LOL They taste fantastic and we’ll make them again and again!!! Made for Fall PAC 2012 Thanks, Noo!
