Tammy's Review: 

This biscotti recipe is so easy to prepare, and has an excellent flavor. It's a nice treat, and keeps well. It looks and tastes "gourmet", yet is simple to make. After trying this recipe, you'll never need to buy almond chocolate biscotti again! :) My rating: 10/10

Thumbs up!

I've never made biscotti before but i loved this recipe. I almost burned it though as it cooked much faster in my oven than the recipe said. It was delicious!
