TWD: Lenox almond Biscotti

Let me start by saying I don't like biscotti. At least the store bought biscotti. It's hard and flavorless (okay so I've only tried it once, but that was enough to turn me off of the stuff). My husband decided to help me these the other night. It was fun working in the kitchen with him. The kids decided they would rather watch a movie. So my husband read the instructions while I cooked. I was a little leery of these after all how can something with cornmeal in it be that sweet and these were supposed to be a little sweet right?
Well, now I got these all done (the first baking did take a WHOLE lot longer than I thought it would). Yes you do not see pictures of the finished product. That will teach me to taste something before I take the pictures of them. :-) I was surprised I loved these. Excellent (unfortunately I was the only one that liked them and I ended up eating all of them myself).

They were so good, weren't they? I ate like 6 of them last night just watching tv. If you ate them all, I am impressed!

I was kind of surprised I liked them as much as I did as well. My co-workers cobbled them up today (they are learning to LOVE Tuesdays since I bake my stuff on Mondays). So I guess they liked them as well.

Well now you know a wonderfully selfish little treat you can make for yourself without worrying about everyone else eating them up before you!

Good for you, nothing should go to waste! I ate most of mine also; these were so good, will make again.

These WERE good, and I'm not a biscotti fan. Well, I wasn't. And then I ate three in a row. ;)

These were good weren't they. Store bought is nothing compared to these. Glad you liked them.

I probably would have eaten them all myself as well, so I brought them to my husbands work so his coworkers could devour them instead!

These were delicious! I've pretty much eaten our whole batch!

Amanda said...

Ha! That's funny :) I've been running out of daylight before I get a chance to take pics of my dinners. That's almost as annoying as eating them all first LOL! My father in law and I have been eating these biscotti all morning!
