Biscotti

olive oil biscotti  I have been planning to make biscotti for a long time. Two major reasons for making it now. 1. We know someone who likes them in particular 2. I have started enjoying my daughter help me with the 'mix mix mix'... We were watching Elmo's birthday video and that reminded her of 'cake'. So for now all baking leads to cakes. I got her to help me with beating up the eggs. If I dont let her handle something in the name of measuring, she says she wants to measure. While making them, she had a list of people, she wanted to share them with.
