ABC - Orange, Date & Almond Biscotti

I love biscotti and lucky for us, so does Christina Marsigliese. Her blog, Scientifically Sweet, contains many biscotti recipes. The one that caught my eye immediately was the Orange, Date & Almond Biscotti, probably because my favorite biscotti is one that a close friend shared with me, many years ago. It's a Cranberry, Almond and Anise Seed biscotti.

Delicious cup-a-tea with a biscotti. Notice the scalloped top. I explain later how I did that :o)

SMS - Cranberry and Almond (and Flax Seed) Biscotti

First, I'm saddened by the fact that my home country lost the World Cup today - in sympathy, I colored this announcement Orange... :o(

Ok, back to baking business... This week's Sweet Melissa Sundays recipe was chosen by Tracey of Made by Tray-Tray. She selected Sour Cherry and Almond Biscotti, however, I turned them into Cranberry and Almond Biscotti. I already have a favorite Cranberry and Almond Biscotti recipe in my repertoire but I was curious how Melissa's recipe would compare. Although hers are pretty tasty too, they didn't trump my recipe. Regardless of that, a big thanks to Tracey for such a great pick and a chance to experiment with a new biscotti recipe.

Yummy! Cranberry Almond and Flax Seed biscotti.
