Dipped Chocolate Almond Biscotti

These delicious Dipped Chocolate Almond Biscotti have a triple hit of almond. Almond flour adds additional depth to these cookies, while the almond extract adds a lovely bitterness. Sliced almonds add some crunch, while semi sweet chocolate adds a slight sweetness which perfectly compliments the rest of the flavours in this crispy cookie.
