Who doesn’t know about these finely sweet, crisp cookies called biscotti? Although they were originated in Italy hundreds of years ago, the ever popular tasty biscotti can actually be found in different countries all over the world.

As a matter of fact, it is believed that even Christopher Columbus brought these cookies on his expeditions because they were so dry and sturdy which prevent them from spoiling quickly. The name biscotti can be interpreted as twice cooked which certainly explains the way these delicious cookies are prepared. Baking them twice can lose any excess moisture which makes a crispy and dry cookie ideal for dipping. Since biscotti is barely sweet, they represent a great snack at any time of the day, whether you enjoy them with a cup of coffee during breakfast or dipped into a sweet dessert wine after eating dinner.
