Biscotti ai Pignoli (Pine Nut Cookies)

Mon, 05 Aug 2002 19:26:45 -0400

Although they are called "biscotti", they are not a biscotti in the true sense (ie: twice baked)they are really more like a cookie. They are very easy to make and are a traditional part of every Italian cookie/pastry tray, especially for weddings and other festive/special occaisions. They are also very good any old time, with a cup of coffee or a cappuccino :) -- posted by Dee514

Ginger Pistachio Biscotti

Fri, 15 Nov 2002 20:12:34 -0500

This recipe is dedicated to ChrisseyO who sent me a bag of totally awesom, addictive "Wildbite" Ginger-Pistachio Biscotti I have now made this recipe 3 times and it gets better each time, This time I substituted roasted pumkin seeds for the pistachios - excellent result and what a cost saving plus not having to crack all those pistachios. The pumkin seeds made the recipe a bit drier.but still great texture & flavor. -- posted by Bergy

Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti

Fri, 18 Apr 2003 20:01:41 -0400

Biscotti is used to describe a long, dry, hard twice baked cookie with a curved top and a flat bottom designed for dunking into wine or coffee. The name biscotti is derived from 'bis' meaning twice in Italian and 'cotto' meaning baked or cooked. These are very nice glazed or dipped in white chocolate. Enjoy. Don't let all the steps bother you. -- posted by Barb Gertz

Spring Biscotti

Wed, 23 Apr 2003 20:05:29 -0400

Another web find. This biscotti has a fresh taste with orange zest, dried cranberries, white chocolate, and pistachios. Very light and tasty. The combination of flavors is perfect. You may want to add some orange extract or doubled the vanilla extract, or even use some lemon extract. You may need to adjust your oven temperature depending on what type of oven you use. Use an electric knife, it cuts through these biscotti like butter. -- posted by kcdelong

Blueberry Biscotti

Fri, 09 May 2003 20:04:42 -0400

Fudgy Chocolate Biscotti

Tue, 08 Jul 2003 20:03:55 -0400

Honey Almond Biscotti

Mon, 11 Aug 2003 20:01:40 -0400

I love the honey flavor of these biscotti as much the almond aroma while they bake. Based on "Biscotti Napoletani" from Nick Malgieri's book, Great Italian Desserts, the three flavoring ingredients are just honey-almond-cinnamon. They're wonderful in this pure form but I mention the optional ingredients since they please my American tastebuds. Since there's no butter or egg, these biscotti are exceptionally light--imagine a crisp, honey almond toast. They're different but definitely worth trying. -- posted by TommyGato

Almond Biscotti With Orange Rind

Wed, 09 Feb 2005 19:57:31 -0500

This is my long time favorite desert, travels well, freezes well, and is great at dunking in coffee, and is amazingly easy to make. The original recipe came to me from very long ago and while OK just lacked something. It turns out that sometime is more nuts, more flavorings, and orange peel. I almost always double the recipe which then makes about 45- 50 biscotti. I have also been known to dip some of the biscotti in melted chocolate. -- posted by doctorjerry

Chocolate Chip Cookie Sticks

Mon, 01 Aug 2005 16:02:11 -0400

These chocolate chip cookies are like biscotti--twice baked. Everyone says they are DELICIOUS, some people used milk chocolate chips. For a more crunchy cookie bake a little longer on the second baking. Cooling time not included in time. Make-Ahead Tip: Bake cookies as directed; cool completely, place in a freezer container or bag and freeze up to 3 months. Before serving, thaw for 15 minutes. The recipe comes from Better Homes and Gardens. -- posted by Barb Gertz

Mint Chocolate Chip Biscotti

Thu, 18 Aug 2005 19:18:28 -0400

I LOVE these cookies. They are easy to make and have a gorgeous balance of minty-chocolate-y-ness. You can make mini-biscotti, if you want. I always double the recipe and freeze one batch. PLEASE NOTE*: These are NOT SWEET cookies. Best dunked in hot coffee or chocolate. -- posted by JenSmith

Ellie's Biscotti

Fri, 26 Aug 2005 23:33:46 -0400

This recipe is from a friend of mine in Boston. She and I used to work together and have continued our friendship into retirement. One day she emailed me that she was sending me some goodies, but did not tell me what it was. Only that it was homemade! Imagine my surprise when I received a very heavy package via parcel post! I anxiously opened it and found a great, and big, Rubbermaid container filled with homemade Biscotti! Boy, were they scrumptious! -- posted by Nana Lee

Chocolate, Cherry and Chile Biscotti

Mon, 17 Oct 2005 15:59:31 -0400

If you like biscotti, expand your palate a bit with these deliciously spicy cookies. Chocolate and chiles are old friends, and the cherries add sweet contrast. Candidates for dipping include full-bodied wines like Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon, port, and espresso, and just plain old coffee, tea or milk! -- posted by Nana Lee

Butter Pecan Biscotti

Thu, 11 Dec 2008 09:04:43 -0500

The holidays are here and I was looking for a cookie selection to use a bag of butterscotch baking chips and at the same looking for a biscotti recipe. Decided to join the two ideas and then couldn't find a recipe, so I decided to make my own. Personally, I like to keep the nuts in my biscotti fairly large because I like the way they look when you slice the logs. Chopped works just as well. -- posted by justcallmetoni

American-Style Vanilla Biscotti

Tue, 30 Dec 2008 01:28:46 -0500

This recipe was featured in an email from the www.kingarthurflour.com website: "Here it is, the simplest, easiest biscotti recipe you'll ever follow. Biscotti bake twice rather than once, and thus take a bit longer start-to-finish than normal drop cookies. But the dough is put together exactly like drop cookie dough. And if your kitchen skills include shaping a meatloaf and slicing a loaf of bread, you've got what it takes to make delicious, gorgeous biscotti." -- posted by senseicheryl
