Dear Alessandra, so kind of you to respond to my comment on your other video. I have been watching your videos non stop and I feel so close to you like you would have been a dear dear friend or cousin!! To me. Your sweet spirit and your wonderful cooking and baking are so close to how my family does the dishes that you make I just have fallen in love with you and your family and your videos. Thank you for these treasured gifts of making them for us. God bless you ❤
Dear Maura, Thank you so much! 💕 you cannot imagine how happy your message makes me. ♥️ I truly enjoy sharing the video and I know it sounds crazy but totally feel a connection with viewers. Hope one day to meet you. Buon Natale a te e famiglia cara cugina! 💚🤍♥️💫🎄
Well I know this viewer feels connected with you as you do them. I love your stories and I appreciate all your experience and your tips. I have never attempted biscotti but how you teach to do them makes me feel I could do them!! Don’t have enough time now for Christmas but hopefully after the holidays I ‘ll attempt making some!! Much love to you and yours this Christmas season.. Take care and keep warm we are supposed to be getting some really cold temperatures here up north. Stay warm and cozy and safe. Tiamo dear friend
Ciao Bella! 11:12 My favorite ! I’ve made these in the passed and they really are delicious… if you make them your self you can save a lot of money from buying them in the bakery since everything is going up in price .. these are way better then the Stella doro ones too… once I made these I never bought store bought ones again! I love these with my espresso and my moms Zabilone and coffee for breakfast it’s the perfect Italian breakfast! Thank you for all your great recipes… and again I want to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas…Buona Natale! ❤️
I just subscribed because I like the way you present the recipe and I can tell you do things the right way. Also, it looks like you update aspects of the recipe and still keep the original integrity and authenticity. A lot of the old recipes call for 5 lbs of flour, 1 dozen eggs etc and you end up with a massive amount of tough cookies so things do need to be updated for texture and flavor. One trick I have for making the 2 logs is I use an ice cream scoop and do it directly on the cookie sheet. That way you don't have to mess with the sticky dough and you end up with 2 logs the exact size.
Made a few batch last night. One batch I added roasted hazelnuts and espresso chocolate chips. Oh my oh my I’m in biscotti heaven. 💕 thank you always for watching. Buon Natale 💫🎄
Love what you do but since I've been watching you cook I had to put out so much money on buying Bigger clothes. So now I'm going to pace myself because this time of year is the best for cooking and baking. Thanks again for all your recipes. Ciao
Hi Tommy, You have me laughing. 😂 everyone that hangs out with me eats more and sleeps better. Lol Buon Natale a te e famiglia. Thank you always for watching. God bless

Made these today forming 3 logs for smaller biscotti. Even though I forgot the almond extract they were still very good. Must be excellent with it.
Thank you so much for watching. The smaller biscotti are great for platters. 💕🎄 buon natale 🎄
