I was sooooooooooooo disappointed in this recipe. it was a waste of time and money. I followed the recipe to a "T" and it never rose like a biscotti..They came out flat like cookies. I will continute to make them from scratch. Something is missing is this recipe.... AWFUL! Never Again..Down the drain....
