What is Biscotti
Biscotti is a type of Italian cookie that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is best served with coffee, tea, or milk. Biscotti are typically dipped into the hot liquid and then taken out to cool before eating them. This process gives them a crunchy outer layer while leaving it soft on the inside.
Biscotti originated from Italy and are eaten year round but have become popular during Christmas time due to their resemblance to trees when they were decorated with red and green icing as well as nuts for decorations.
