I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biscotti turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked them.

These biscotti were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

These were a bit too crunchy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These were good, but not great. I think I would have liked them more if they were a little bit sweeter.

I found the dough to be a bit too sticky. I had to add some more flour to get it to the right consistency.
