Epic failure. Could not slice for 2nd baking. I'll try a half cup flour next time. Baked at 350 for 33 minutes and bottoms were very brown.

I've baked these with several different cake (and brownie) mixes for different flavors--enjoyed them all. To avoid the crumbling after the first bake, mix in the flour after combining the cake mix, butter (or oil), and eggs--a full cup can be too much flour with some cake mixes. Add it gradually until the dough is a good kneading consistency. I often use only 2/3 or 3/4 cup. Also I've used almond meal in place of the flour and extract, with good results.

This simple recipe makes a wonderful biscotti. I used a brand name french vanilla cake mix and it turned out great. I especially liked the texture: not too hard with a satisfying crunch. I make biscotti often as I usually have a 4:00 cup of coffee to keep going for the rest of the day.
