Twice Baked


Took some time out of my work day today to make some Orange Walnut Black Pepper Biscotti and boy, was it worth it. The subtle sweet/tang of orange zest combined with the earthy, buttery walnuts and a little peppery crunch... mmm, mmm, mmm!!!

I derive as much satisfaction from the making as the eating, and as much pleasure from the fragrance as the taste.

These babies aren't going to last long. Thank heavens this recipe requires simple ingredients and straightforward preparation.

Such a sweet and spicy treat on a cool winter's day.
