The last post is looking for the delicious Italian style biscotti in the KAF Cookie Companion. No Butter. Coffee shop biscotti are never as good as the KAF Italian biscotti. I made a batch of anise-flavored with pine nuts for a friend from South Philly and he approved. His comment was if you hit the biscotti on the table, the table should break before the cookie does. My son at college loves them; they work with his coffee and don't get stale. Make them with dried cranberries and pistachios and you get beautiful colors and great taste. But the best combination I have come up with is dried pineapple and pecans. Cut up the pineapple with shears so that every bite has a little bit of sweet chewy goodness. They're heavenly!
