Notes: I grew up with these cookies. Both my grandmothers and my Mom would make these. I especially remember Mom making them when she lived with me during the last 7 years of her life. They were so good. I have made them twice and someday, when I retire, I was thinking of starting a business making Biscotti. These are the smaller authentic Italian kind.
