    Easy Biscotti - 3 Ways in One means three delicious varieties with just one recipe to satisfy every craving! Perfect as a snack or to dip in your coffee.

    According to the dictionary, biscotto is a crisp cookie or biscuit of Italian origin, usually referred to in plural form as biscotti.  I never knew that and I just had to share that with you.  Hopefully I am not the only one who didn't know that!

    This Biscotti 3 in One recipe, who I must give credit to my late friend Marcel, is awesome. Just plain awesome. This is a recipe you will make over and over again. You can make three delicious varieties with just one recipe! Perfect as a snack or to dip in your coffee this recipe satisfies every craving, every time!

    Life is full of decisions and choices and normally I am pretty good at making them except when it comes to a sweet treat, I often have trouble making up my mind. When there are so many delicious choices out there, how am I supposed to choose just one?  

    This recipe is the answer to my "I can't choose just one" problem!  Why choose one, when you can choose three?!! This biscotti recipe gives you three delicious cookies in one shot!

    Biscotti - 3 Ways in One

    These three varieties of biscotti cookies all start with the same dough that you divide into three parts and add different ingredients to each. Voila! You have three cookies in one recipe which is why it is called Biscotti - 3 Ways in One!

    One cookie is a crunchy biscotti cookie with chocolate and cinnamon and what a perfect flavor duo they make.  The second biscotti cookie is flavored with orange rinds and almonds. I love the citrus combined with the crunch of the almonds!  The third biscotti cookie is full of coffee flavor and hazelnuts and is absolutely delicious with your morning cup of coffee?  Actually, the all are in their own special way!

    I hope this recipe helps you solve the "I can't choose just one" problem too. I can definitely get on board with a recipe that allows me to have three delicious options all at once. Why choose?  I say try all three varieties!
