Almond Biscotti (Cantucci) Italy's Classic Dunking Cookie (e30)

[@Karen-vv5dw]

For a couple of months now I’ve been on the hunt for a really good biscotti recipe and I’ve found it! Texture is perfect, flavor subtle yet shows through, and recipe itself is easy to follow for any level of baker and results in a substantial amount of biscuits. Enjoy making and eating these as much as I do!!!

I made these yesterday and they're delicious! I've made many biscotti recipes but this one is probably the best I've made! Really nice texture. Not too hard that you'll break your teeth on and also not soft. Just a perfect delicate crunch!

Nonna Mia's Cantucci recipe is the BEST!!! I make this recipe almost every week as my kids love them. Make the recipe exactly as Nonna does and you will have delicious cantucci biscotti. They are out of this world if you dip them in Vin Santo. Grazie mille Nonna Mia for sharing this fabulous recipe.❤

How much Amaretto (4 tablespoon) and vanilla (1 tablespoon)? it looks like a lot more in her glass.

60 ml .. it’s a small cup and perhaps deceiving but yes, 4 tablespoons of Amaretto.

Hi Nonna, my husband and I made these twice. The dough seems very wet and drippy so we added, a lot more flour so the consistency doesn’t drip. Do you add a lot more flour as you go? Any suggestions? Other than that they are delicious!!

@@nonnamia7890 I am so excited about seeing your S cookie recipe. The Italian bakery my parents used to go to years ago, like 50+ years make the cookies, they have the best Italian baked goods, including the sesame cookies. They are similar to a S cookie but more shaped like a football and covered in sesame seeds. The name of the bakery is Bommarito in St. Clair Shoes, Michigan, oh I just have the best memories of that place. Unfortunately it is an hour and a half away and I don’t get to that area often, I am always looking for recipes that bring back wonderful memories.

What is better by butter or by olive oil

[@nonnamia7890]

Buon giorno cara. I like to use both but I definitely use olive oil a lot more - it is healthier. But both are fine. Which do you prefer?

[@nadeemarman5150]

Cam you skip the Alchohol and also substitute the suger with natural sweetener?

[@nonnamia7890]

No problem skipping the alcohol. Unfortunately I’m not experienced with sweetener … it has a different consistency so you will need to do some trial and error.

[@ettygaspard770]

Sounds nice but the almonds are not written in the recipe ingredients.. but they look delicious⚘️

[@nonnamia7890]

Grazie. Sorry. It’s not clearly written. “First, Nonna roasts up 2 cups of almonds at about 325 for approximately 12-15 min. She then chops up half and leaves the rest whole. Nonna uses almonds with the skin on, though some prefer blanched almonds - both are great, use whatever you prefer.”

Hi Nonna - thank you for sharing your wealth of baking knowledge with us. Before watching your video, I baked two batches of cookies. After allowing them to cool for 10 minutes, I sliced them using a serrated knife but the cookies started to crumble - I placed them back in the oven for an additional 10 minutes only. Any idea why they would be so crumbly. Your video said 10 minutes each side but I only did 10 minutes. They taste fine but they look crumbly. Any suggestions or recommendations as to why you think they were crumbly? Thank you in advance - now that I found your paged I did subscribe.
