Double Chocolate Almond Biscotti
About Double Chocolate Almond Biscotti
This recipe is a slight tweak from 'Jenny can cook' wonderfully easy recipe. To go healthier, i've replaced all-purpose flour with locally milled Whole-wheat flour, which has soya beans added into it too! The sugar content has been halved, chocolate is homemade and is made with coconut oil. The recipe is adapted from Jenny's blog, that can be found in the reference URL.
