Monte Carlo Biscuits

Growing up, my Dad had a very traditional Italian breakfast most mornings – 1 cup of coffee and a biscotti. While he doesn’t eat this way anymore (reads: his naturopathic daughter made him change his breakfast ways), I know deep down he loves nothing more than that simple breakfast.

This recipe is more of a treat or the afternoon pickme up, its not an ideal breakfast.
