Chai Spiced Biscotti

We absolutely love this time of year. Baking just seems to be so much more enjoyable when we are making things for friends and family. We also use it as an excuse to warm the house, since my husband is not too keen on turning on the heat! Not only are these Chai Spiced Biscotti perfect for your oven warming expedition but the biscotti spices are warm and cozy.

Chai Spiced Biscotti

Biscotti are a staple in our home. Growing up, if someone came over for coffee, you better have had a nice crunchy biscotti to go with it. It is an Italian thing. If you didn’t, you weren’t a true Italian.

While I love the traditional anise flavored Biscotti, these Chai Spiced Biscotti are a nice change. The flavors are warm and cozy, making you want to snuggle up with a flannel blanket and a warm cup of coffee.

They also make wonderful gifts. Package them up in a cute bag and bow and I can guarantee that your recipient will be happy!

Now I may seem crazy saying this, but we all know it is a busy time of year. Make sure to pin this recipe for when you begin planning your holiday cookie boxes. They are different and delicious. Hey, it’s never to early to start planning! Check out more of my favorite holiday cookies below the recipe. Enjoy!

    Crumbly and fragile, with barely any spice flavor. I took a chance on a biscotti recipe with oil in it, but this is no good.
