This recipe is great, I would agree with some of the other posts this really isn't biscotti it just has the texture, it is way to sweet for traditional biscotti. That being said my in laws are from Italy I brought this to Xmas and everybody asked for the recipe. (that is truly a compliment since in my 10 yrs knowing them this only the 2nd they asked) Things that made it a little easier. I crushed the pistachio's in a bag using a rolling pin. I divided the dough in the mixing bowl and made 2 rolls. I placed these rolls in plastic wrap and formed them to the size of 15 x 2 (I actually used a ruler, my eyeball measurement was way off this made the cookies more uniform) I also added a few drops of green food coloring.

These are Sooooo good, have made them a half dozen times. They have a great texture and taste so yummy. I bake one sheet at a time, so they are time consuming but well worth it.

YUM-MO!!! I have made this 6 times since I found this recipe 2 weeks ago. I made the original version a few times. And a few variations: Original with almond extract. Lemon pudding, lemon extract, no mix-ins. Lemon pudding, cranberries, blanched slivered almonds, lemon extract. Vanilla pudding, chocolate chips, almond extract. I see the variations as endless. I want to try the pumpkin pie version. As another reviewer mentioned sometimes the dough is wetter than other times and the baking time is longer. I think this is my new go to cookie.

I have made biscotti from a few other recipes and they always turn out too hard. This recipe was fantastic. I knew it would be a hit when my husband said, "whatever you did to make these, keep doing it." He has to be the pickiest eater. Anyway, I made them again and did change a few things. I used sugar free pudding and dried cherries. My mother who doesn't like cherries thought they were wonderful. I then made them again but used sugar free chocolate pudding with dried cherries, wonderful. I think that next time I will use sugar free chocolate pudding with mini chocolate chips and dried cherries. This recipe is definitely a keeper.

I had Pumpkin Spice pudding mix and couldn't find sugar cookie mix (sold out at the store!) so I used the snickerdoodle mix. They were incredible. I added raisins and walnuts. Had to add 1 tbsp water to account for the different cookie mix. I can't wait to try other variations!

What a great recipe. Easy and tastes so good. I left my nuts a little course and liked the texture.

I don't know what to say...they turned out to taste great, but it seemed to take forever for them to bake.I finally had to leave home so after an hour, I turned off the oven, left the oven door open just a creak, left them in the oven until I got home three hours later. Like I said they are delicious, but I think maybe my eggs may have been too large...????

LOVE LOVE LOVE! It was an easy enough recipe that I tried this when I found it a couple years ago. It went straight into my standard Christmas cookie recipes. When I made it last year, I added more chopped pistachios and cranberries and a drop or two of green food coloring. I have to make two batches, just to have them as giveaways - so good!
