This is a simple dessert but seems a touch more special than the vanilla version. Serve biscotti on the side for more crunch.
Macadamia nuts are easy to cut, making for neat slices of biscotti.
Like thin biscotti, these jewel-studded cookies are crisp and delightful. Use a sharp serrated knife for slicing.
Crispy cookies studded with crunchy pistachios are decorated with a sweet lemon drizzle. To speed up preparation, purchase shelled pistachios at bulk-food stores or ask the family to help hull them.
This is a recipe from Lynn Lilje of Surrey, B.C. You can also use white chocolate or semisweet chocolate chips. For a festive touch, add 1/2 cup (125 mL) candied fruit to the dough. Or dip one end of each cookie into melted milk chocolate then sprinkle with dark chocolate or sliced nuts.
