I had some trouble getting the biscotti to slice evenly. Maybe I needed to chill the dough for longer?

These biscotti are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These biscotti are the best! They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with a wonderful almond flavor. I love to dunk them in coffee or tea.
