ALMOND BISCOTTI (Italian almond biscuits)

In this video I’m taking you back to my childhood, and pretty much every Italian household.

I’m showing you how I make almond biscotti (Italian almond biscuits). This Italian staple is pretty much served all the time when the coffee gets put on.

There are a lot of variations for this recipe, with different shapes and sizes and the additional of dried fruits and spices.

This recipe is one that’s been in my family a long time and has been passed down for generations.

It’s hard to stop at just one. They can be enjoyed on their own as a snack, but I think they’re best served with a coffee.
