    I have been looking for a recipe that tasted just like my Italian Grandma's and I have found it! My dad is the perfect judge. He said "Don't change a thing, just like my mom's. Grandma would be proud of you." This is one of the easiest recipes for biscotti I have tried. They come out wonderful.

    Rosemary/lemon

    Used vanilla extract and lemoncello liquor for liquid. Added fresh lemon zest, finely chopped fresh rosemary and dried cranberries.

    Husband liked them better than any sweet combination biscotti I've ever made. Over the top good. Savory and sweet.

    I have made these biscottis countless of times, and has been my go-to recipe. Easy to make it your own and be creative. They are wonderful dipped in a hot drink in the morning.
    I love to make ones that are vanilla on top and coffee on bottom and dip the bottoms with melted semi-sweet chocolate or white chocolate. I also refrigerate the dough for at least 30-45 minutes before baking to make it more easy to shape and the dough doesn't break that much when I slice them after the first bake.

    This was simple and delicious! I had never made biscotti before and this was as good as what you get at an Italian bakery. I added some vanilla and almond extract instead of anise and used whole roasted almonds and pistachios for some added texture and flavor. These are great with a cup of coffee or a glass of red wine.

    I love this recipe. Everytime I make it, I get rave reviews. Great basic recipe that you can make your own with what ever you like to add. I'm making it today with chopped almonds and dried cherries. I'm sure it will rock.

    This is the best and easiest recipe! The biscotti,exactly like my Nonna's. I added chopped hazelnuts; yummy. Once in a pinch, I subsituted light olive oil for vegetable oil and everyone said they were delicious! I love you Rocco! Zia1021

    I made these for my boyfriends mother over the weekend as her birthday gift. Her card read and I quote "the best I've had in the US or Italy". She was over the moon, this is THE perfect biscotti.
