Learn How To Make Biscotti - Twice Baked Italian Treat - Crunchy Almond-Flavored Dippers - Zee Zest

Biscotti are Italian almond biscuits that originated in the Tuscan city of Prato.
Classic biscotti cookies are dry and crisp, so they are ideal for dipping in hot coffee or tea. Sometimes biscotti are dipped in melted chocolate.
Biscotti are baked twice, which gives them their dry, crunchy texture.

Biscotti, as you may know, is Italian for “twice-cooked” – so if you like a bit of a crunch, put those biscotti back in the oven again for the second round of baking. The longer these Italian biscotti stay in the oven, the crispier they will get.

Another well-known fact is that biscotti will last forever! Well, maybe not forever… but you get my point. Because they are baked twice, there is little moisture in the dough. Since biscotti are a low moisture cookie, this will allow you to store them at room temperature, where they will keep for a few weeks. It is best to keep them in an air-tight container.
