' Almond Biscotti ... ,
You can find these in almost all the coffee shops. Although, I'm shocked at the large amounts of fat & calories contained in those! So I decided to try out a healthier version, which also turned out to be simple to make...
Recipe taken from here.
Made up of simple ingredients, this recipe is straight forward to follow. The baking takes quite a while, so patience is needed =P
[I baked these in a hurry and it's the first time I've ever tried to make these, so apologies for the look of them! >.<]
N.B. These aren't all the steps! I just selected a few steps to feature.
-------------------------
Roasting the almonds to heighten their taste...
....now time to beat 3 eggs with the vanilla and almond extracts....
... 3/4 cup of sugar - not at all too much =P ...
...add it in with the flour...
...combining EVERYTHING...
...rolling it out & measuring...
...the first stage of baking...
...*Optional* - and whilst waiting for the second stage of baking, time to make the chocolate sauce...
(don't follow this step! As my chocolate sauce turned out to be a disaster haha...! )
...and the final product ....
...a mix of non-chocolate & chocolate coated biscottis!
