Want to manifest better biscotti? Well, you need to know The Secret of Baker Street. There is a secret to biscotti – many secrets and I share tons of them in my cookbooks. But recently, even I found yet another secret that blew the lid open on what even I know about biscotti. (It is included in the recipe instructions and it will, guaranteed, change how you do biscotti). This recipe contains ‘the secret’ and then some.  It is a symphony of double-caramel batter, studded with chunks of chocolate, hunky almonds and chocolate syrup ripples running through a crisp, crumbly biscotti that is totally divine.
