What a wonderful biscotti! I've never made biscotti before and with this easy-to-follow recipe they came out perfectly! The dough was much stickier than I thought it would be but I just floured my hands to form the dough for the first baking so it wasn't a problem. The chai flavor really comes out in these and it's very nice with the chocolate. This is a keeper - thanks for sharing the recipe!
