These are lemony and crunchy. I don't remember where I got the recipe from. It's scrawled on the back of an old electric bill envelope. I THINK it came from a mom at a PTA meeting many years ago... The size isn't hard and fast, but if you make the logs bigger your yield will be different.

I'm not a big fan of anise, so I was hesitant to try these biscotti. But I'm glad I did! The anise flavor is very subtle, and it pairs well with the polenta and almonds.

I found these biscotti to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These biscotti are a bit dry, but they are still good. I think next time I would add a little more butter to the dough.
