Cashew Biscotti with chocolate glaze by roopavij

This is going to be my first homemade Biscotti. Biscotti is an all time favorite at our house. I have been meaning to make this from a long long time.

All this talk about APRONS and Grandmothers got me going on assembling my notes and photos to finally share with you a very cherished recipe my 'Nonna' made for me growing up. Granted, as I turned baker in my kitchen, I confess to having tweaked it just enough to meet with her approval. She also found that my version was slightly…

Almond Biscotti

Almond Biscotti by Salad Foodie

Crunchy biscotti are my go-to coffee dunkers. The sweet toasts make a perfect hostess or holiday gift besides. This recipe features almonds but pecans or hazelnuts would be fine, with vanilla extract in place of almond.

NUTTY flourless cookie CRISPS < Brutti ma Buoni > by Foodessa

Got a few egg whites left over from a recipe? Here's a super easy crispy, flourless cookie called < Brutti ma Buoni >. It's an Italian saying...loosely translated as ugly looking (not really) but yummy. Originally made with roasted hazelnuts...however, re-created to include roasted almonds instead. I also reduced much of the…

Pear and Blue Cheese Crostata with Honey and Almonds

Pear and Blue Cheese Crostata with Honey and Almonds by Angellove's Cooking

Adapted from Lauren Bracey: Pear and Bleu Cheese Tart, Easier than Pie I have found the challenging combination of pears, blue cheese and almonds, baked with honey, so particularly tempting that I have felt like immediately indulging in this so irresistible culinary frivolousness.
