Tuscan Cantucci
They are crunchy twice baked almond cookies from Tuscany, they’re also known as “Biscotti di Prato”.
In Tuscany, they’re traditionally served at the end of a meal with a glass of Tuscan dessert wine, “Vin santo” for dipping but you can also serve them with tea or coffee.
A very simple recipe, try it!
