Description

These rustic biscotti with dried fruit are a poem! I especially like to make them in autumn and winter, when the desire for something sweet and crunchy increases. The combination of the shortcrust pastry and the filling of nuts, honey and chocolate is simply irresistible. They are perfect with coffee or tea and can be prepared wonderfully. An absolute must for all lovers of traditional pastries! And with the Thermomix® the preparation is very easy.
