Ingredients

DESCRIPTION

These are biscotti decorated like ghosts and perfect for kids to dunk in milk or other beverages at a Halloween party or to send wrapped to the school Halloween party. I like the use of almonds in two ways, ground to give a little moisture instead of flour and whole for crunchy texture and good looks! For your Halloween party, rest a pot of hot cider inside a big jack-o'-lantern. Pour it into mugs with red-hot candies, cinnamon sticks or cinnamon schnapps.
