Biscotti

Biscotti (/bɪˈskɒti/, Italian: [biˈskɔtti]; lit.'biscuits') or cantucci (Italian: [kanˈtuttʃi]) are Italian almond biscuits that originated in the Tuscan city of Prato. They are twice-baked, oblong-shaped, dry, crunchy, and may be dipped in a drink, traditionally Vin Santo. Versions with smaller pieces are known as biscottini or cantuccini.
