I had some pretty high hopes for this recipe. I've made the almond biscotti twice and I thought they were superb. My co-workers shared my opinion so I thought these would be the same. Unfortunately I was disappointed. The recipe called for chopped almonds. I bought salted almonds and chopped them myself. I used milk chocolate instead of bittersweet.
I believe I baked them a little too long. You are supposed to bake for 25 minutes, cool for 20 and bake for an additional 10. I think the first 25 was too much. They had a hard outside and soft inside which made cutting them pretty hard.
The almonds overpowered the whole thing and I thought the biscotti itself tasted too bitter. I am not a fan...
