Biscotti is an Italian traditional cookie — the word biscotti simply means cookies. Biscotti comes from a Mediaval Latin word, “bis costus” which means twice cooked. This is the only type of cookies I know that is baked twice — once as a slab and then the slices are re-baked again.
Biscotti is easy to make, easy to keep without going stale and delicious to eat. They’re also lower in fat and sugar than a traditional cookie.
