Hazelnut and orange biscotti
These crunchy Italian biscotti are packed with toasted hazelnuts and the fragrant aroma of fresh orange zest. Twice-baked for that classic crisp texture, they keep exceptionally well when stored in an airtight container. Enjoy them dunked into a hot cup of coffee or tea.
