German Biscotti! Who Knew! Wow, these are wonderful I had two and put the rest in the freezer or I don't think that any of the 19 cookies I got would make it till dark. That right, 19 and I'm not at all unhappy with that. I made this lovely recipe a bit more diabetic friendly for myself by using 3/4 cup of EggBeaters and using only 1 TBS of sugar (for baking properties and completing the rest of the scant 1 cup with Splenda. The subs worked perfectly. I got nicely raised, golden logs (I used an EggBeater wash before baking). The lemon and almond is delish (used almond extract). Oh yes, I toasted the slices for 7 mins which was enough to dry them but not darken the lovely golden color. Two thumbs up!

<p>I am one of the early members of Zaar joining in October 2001. It was instantly my favorite site even though there were only about 5000 recipes. Back then the original owners Troy and Gay ran the site and they had a lot of interaction with the members. I miss them. <br /> <br />Through the years it still remains to this day my favorite go to site and the one that I send all of my friends and family to when they need anything.</p>
