Biscotti get a tough wrap for being a tad on the crunchy side, but I’d like to take this opportunity to commit their poor reputation to user error.  It’s a dipping cookie people!  So whether you prefer coffee, tea, or milk – stop complaining and dunk it!  This recipe for Toffee Crunch Biscotti goes particularly well with Starbuck’s new Caramel Brulee Latte or they’re slightly more grown up Toffee Nut Latte.  I have never been able to do the black coffee thing and, as such, enjoy experimenting with new coffee creations.  The latest and greatest is the simple substitution of about ½ cup of eggnog instead of the usual cream and sugar.  For a Thai coffee, swap that eggnog for some sweetened condensed milk.  And, if you’re really feeling sweet, heat a tablespoon of cocoa powder or hot chocolate mix with milk or cream for a quick mocha.  There are about as many options as there are biscotti, so get dipping! 

 The Perfect Present!
