These biscotti were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or oil next time.

I love how versatile these biscotti are. You can dip them in coffee, tea, or even milk. You can also add different spices or nuts to change up the flavor. I've even made them into biscotti sandwiches with ice cream in the middle. Yum!

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon. But I'm so glad I did! The cinnamon sugar coating is perfectly balanced and not overpowering. The biscotti are also really easy to make, which is a bonus.
